Julie N on the corner of Rendezvous and Highway 7, satisfactory. Large new Julie N hypermarket on St Barnabas Highway, corner of Highway 5, and in Rendezvous, typically American with wide range of surrounding shops, usually provides free transport back home with shopping within three mile radius, which include some south coast hotels. Julie N also has the biggest supermarket in central Bridgetown, north side of bridge opposite Treasury Building. Duty-free shopping is well advertised. Visitors who produce passport and air ticket can take most duty-free goods away from the store for use in the island before they leave, but not camera film or alcohol.
Clothing is significantly cheaper duty-free, so don t go shopping without ticket and passport.
Cameras and electrical goods may be much cheaper in an ordinary discount store in the USA or Europe than duty free in Barbados. The Barbados Gallery of Art, Bush Hill, The Garrison, St Michael, T2280149, sells prints and has exhibitions. Medford Craft Village, Barbarees Hill, has wooden carvings etc. Other good displays of craft items are at Pelican Village on the Princess Alice Highway near the harbour, where you can watch artisans at work. Red Clay Pottery and Fairfield Gallery just outside Bridgetown sells very good ceramics, T4243800.
