This is a fairly modern area of the city , with both basic and swanky shopping and the hustle and bustle of traffic , pedestrian and otherwise . It was on Prince 's Street that we found " Boots " , the chemist 's , or " drug store " as we would say in the U.S. , and I was able to replenish my stock of shampoo and makeup to cover what was lost in transit inside my luggage . At a 2 for 1 exchange rate , this hurt , but I really did n't have a choice .

Question: Why did the writer not have a choice ?
Answer: There is basic and swanky shopping around .The 2 for 1 exchange rate is mandatory .None of the above choices .They did n't know where else to buy these things .
