Check Out British Airways Highlife Shop for Bargains

I was trying to find a stockist of Acqua di Parma cologne for my son's Xmas and checked all the usual online discount perfume stores - all were around £62 for 100ml. By chance, I came across BA's online shop (highlife.com) and found them selling the same item at £51 (including free postage.) They have quite a selection of all sorts of gifts and electrical goods and are well worth checking out for future purchases.

    Just something to note, but I've had a look at this site previously & although the prices are quite good, very few of the traditional "Duty Free" items, such as perfumes, can be purchased direct - most are only available on-board the aircraft.

    For example, when you select the "Female Fragrance" section, there are 3 pages of products, but change the selection in the drop-down box to "available online" & it only gives 5 items!

    Fingers crossed that the ones you want to buy are available online, cos none
    of mine were!

    But other items such as gadgets & electrical fare a bit better, with the majority being available to purchase.
    Everything I wanna do is either illegal, immoral or fattening! lol :rotfl:

    Just found this thread by chance whilst looking for something and I thought I'd post to say that it looks like this has now been stopped: Most if not all of the Acqua di Parma items are either not available on line any more and the 100ml colognes seem to have gone up to £53. Still a good deal if you ask me, but a shame they don't do them online :mad: .
