Hello Beth,
WELCOME to the forum and congratulation for the success of your visa.

Yes, I agree with the gentlemen here that you focus on bringing personal things with you. Forget about bringing foods likes your favorite pancit canton because you dont have to worry of getting them in the UK. Surely you can find an oriental food store that selling those stuff.

And I tell you what, everything here are so expensive so before going for a trip in the UK, make a list and go for a shopping. Get a few jeans, tops, shoes, bags underwears for yourself. Thats what I did before when I came here. And everytime I visit in the Philippines, I grabbed the opportunity.

That is great advice as when i go to bring my wife home in April we are going to both the Ayala Centre & SM in Cebu to fill our suitcases and save loads of money before we get back to the UK.....

Thanks again for the sound advices. Actually, I have prepared my luggage and its more than 20kgs. already so I wonder where else to put my other stuff as the handcarry will only allow me 7 kgs. My husband told me too that will visit the chinese store asap. If there&#39;s only one thing he asked of me though are the cartridges for his razor. I understand that it cost a lot there to buy a pack. Do you have any idea what are the limit for a ream of cigarrettes I can also bring there? My husband can bring about 10 reams and he give it away as tokens for his mates at work, but I am thinking that since he&#39;s a British he wasn&#39;t questioned for doing so. I am not considering of bringing the same amount though, you think 4 reams will not be questioned? Thanks again.
