I read an article on this in a UK broadsheet. Apperently, if you want a
Digital Camera, an iPod, and a laptop computer, you can save about 500-700
GBP, more than worth it since a return from London to NYC is under 200 GBP
and it is only a 7 hour flight.


Plus you can buy pepperoni. Oh yes, and Cheddar cheese.

And you have to be lucky at UK customs, too.


They can't even spot truckloads of Chinese cockle-fishers, so an iPod
shouldn't be a problem.


There are adverts everywhere about how HM Govt will chase benefit
fraudsters - but so far I have seen none about targetting corporate
tax fraud or gangs who smuggle in Chinese, Romanians etc, charging
them thousands of pounds, then enslaving them as per these poor sods
in Morecambe Bay.
