Duty-free = the reason to fly. :biggrin4: Hahaha...
You don't pay much duty (read: taxes) when you buy from duty-free. There are still taxes on them, so the name's actually quite misleading. It's like alcohol from Dubai Duty Free is slightly more expensive than alcohol from Abu Dhabi Duty Free (even though they are both in the same country!), or that alcohol is more expensive in British Duty Free than in say, Singapore Duty Free. But SG Duty Free is still quite expensive IMO.
Best stuff to buy from duty-free:
1) Alcohol (esp. liquors) [got my 1-litre JD for <£10!!]
2) Perfume/cosmetics
I usually buy these 2 nia... maybe you can add chocolate to the list, but only the nice ones. (like Godiva)

daily minimum consumption:
10 pints of beer (lager preferably)
5 shots of whiskey
5 shots of vodka
and one very bad headache...
