Live in UK, buying from UK - using USD?

HELP. I live in the UK, I want to make a UK purchase, from a UK website which gives me the options of £, Euro or USD. If I choose USD it is £25.00 cheaper. Can I do this and if I can would the Credit Card charges etc, override the saving? Many thanks

    Check the terms of the website and check your credit card terms. If in doubt, give your card's CS team a call (number on the back of the card).

    Alternatively, if they accept Paypal, see what you'd be charged if you paid that way (checkout using $ rather than £).
