2. Where to Buy Baby Gifts in the UK

A few other things:

• Most of these stores sell gift certificates.
• Stores accept Visa and MC, but not always AMEX.

• In most cases, it's better to order from a U.K. store to avoid shipping charges and customs duties
  (levied on all gifts worth more than 36 pounds - approx. $65).

• U.S. electrical appliances don't work in the UK.
