Easyjet Gift Prices better than Malaga Duty Free

On our return from Malaga Airport, we bought a Calvin Klein box of five miniature fragrances for men (Obsession, Eternity, CKfree, Euphoria and CKone) for 39.5 Euros (approx £35) from the Duty Free outlet as a gift for our son. However, on board the Easyjet flight, exactly the same box was available for £24.00 - a saving of over £10. But, since we had spent over £7.50 on food and drinks on the plane, we received a voucher entitling us to £5 off any other gift purchased. This brought the price down to £19 - a total saving of around £16 and almost a 50% saving. So I bought another box for my own use.
We had travelled out to Malaga by Ryanair and so hadn't had the opportunity to view the Easyjet in-flight prices to compare them against the Duty Free outlet. It's a good idea to make a note of the in-flight prices so that you can decide where to make your purchases for best value.

That may well be because the so called Duty Free Shop isn't " duty free " for flights within the EU.
Usually it is cheaper to buy stuff at shops in the resort.0
