Look abroad when shopping around

AFTER much research, I finally bought a digital camera. The model here ranged from €240-€280.

I bought it from amazon.co.uk for £140 (€208). An Irish online store reduced the price of another model from €250 to €199. I could have bought it from any number of British online stores for £85 (€126).

Mary Harney, take note. "Shopping around" invariably means "order from abroad".
