Is Korean airport duty-free shop cheap? Shopping guide for duty-free shops in Korea

Duty-free shops in Korea must be frequented by everyone. Today, Bian Xiao will tell you some strategies for Korean duty-free shops, how to spend less money and how to have fun at buybuy.

Silver card for physical store.

First, you can get a silver card by registering online. With this card, you can get a 10% discount or a 15% discount, whether in a physical store or online.

If you brush UnionPay cards in a physical store, you can enjoy a 15% discount, so the final discount is 15%. Of course, if you have a more advanced membership card, the final discount will be around 75% at most. Ok, so much for the store discount. Of course, you can get many samples in the physical store.

Online duty-free shops use points

Ok, let's talk about online duty-free shops. Major duty-free shops will give away a lot of points online (some Korean brands don't use them, such as Snow Show), which can offset 30% of the discount price of the membership card at most, that is, 30% after the discount.

The following are examples of Silla and Silla Arbor customers who have placed orders:

Silla: How many points does Silla give?

1: full * * minus * * * *

2. Points that can be directly deducted

3. Dedicated points. The first two kinds of points add up to no more than 30%. You can add special points (usually 5$) and get them through various activities on the website (note that some points can only be used on the day after collection). If the points collected are less than 30%, you can buy them online.

Xin 'ai Blog: Newly-opened Ai Blog gives away rich points, generally exceeding 100 points, which can be collected every day. Can be as high as 30%.

Normal goods are generally 10% off, then 30% off, and finally 60% off and 30% off.

Tips:

There are always many preferential products online, with a 30% discount or even lower. As far as everyone's shopping experience is concerned, Silla offers more discounts, such as Estee Lauder and Spring Rain Mask. Therefore, when encountering preferential products, plus points, the final discount is 46%.

Attach your friend's shopping list. The price on the left is the normal discount price of the silver card, and the price on the right is 30% off the online one, which can be regarded as the price comparison between the physical store and the online one.

: shopping tips

1. If it's too much trouble to buy points, you can buy them in Silla Arbor. It is also convenient to deduct more points.

2. Silla provides a little more, which will be updated every day. You can go up from time to time to see what preferential products are available.

3. Skin care products. Cosmetics with definite uses can be bought online. Brand bags and cosmetics that need color testing can be bought in physical stores.

Girls had better take men with them when they travel. Although it is convenient to place an order online, they were finally picked up at the airport after customs inspection, which means they have to drag several bags of trophies on the plane.

5. For a physical store, it is recommended to go to Silla Aibaoke, which was newly opened last year, with fewer tourists and a relatively large scale.

6. Place an order the day before your return trip! It's better to be early, there is a time limit. On the day of return, only the products purchased on the same day can be purchased, and there is also a time limit. 3-5 hours ago, every airport was different.

Advantages of online shopping

1. There will be discounts on online goods, and there will be activities to collect points on the website. Coupons can be received every month, and points and coupons can be cashed. It is much cheaper to deduct them than physical stores, and physical stores like to bundle sales, which is not very cost-effective for people who buy less.

2. Online shopping can save the time of visiting duty-free shops. You don't have to carry big bags back to the hotel. You can pick up all the goods after entering the customs. It doesn't take up luggage, and you don't have to worry about being overweight.

How to get integral

Every online duty-free shop has similar points collection activities. New members can receive new membership points, and the rest are daily points, weekly points, mobile phone points purchased by app, points sent by app when paying attention to push, points sent by filling in entry and exit information, points sent by regular activities, and points sent by New World Duty Free Shop when playing games every day.

So after logging into the duty-free shop website, the first thing to do is to open all the activities in banner on the homepage of the website and take away all the points that can be earned. Don't leave anything out!

Coupon use

Coupons can only be used if they are marked with "Coupon Available Goods". Coupons cannot be used for goods with a 30% discount. Generally, coupons are in the form of over 50 minus 5 dollars.

If there are several coupons, it is most cost-effective to reach the bottom line of the coupon amount. For example, if you buy 300 pieces, you can get a100-10,200-20 coupon. Buying these two tickets separately is definitely more cost-effective than buying them together.

Integral use

Cash points must be used after using coupons, and the maximum amount can be up to 28% after deducting the coupon amount. The percentage deducted from each website is different. Please consult the duty-free shop for details.

For example, what you buy is worth 65,438+000, which is quite good. You can use the coupon of 100- 10, and the item says that you can deduct up to 28%. Then the price you get is:100-10-(100-10) 0.28 = 64.8 USD.

: Counter tax refund

1. You can enjoy the tax refund if you spend 30,000 won in the duty-free shop. The step of tax refund is to show your passport to the clerk at the time of settlement, and he will give you a tax refund form (there will be detailed steps to tell you how to get the tax refund money).

Department stores generally have tax refund counters. Take the shopping invoice and passport to the tax refund counter to get the tax refund form. Some department stores can refund taxes on the spot, but they must use credit cards as guarantees. Otherwise, you must choose the tax refund point or airport in the city according to the information on the tax refund form.

If you apply for tax refund at the tax refund counter in downtown Seoul, you will get the tax first, and then the customs will stamp the exit stamp. However, when you apply at the airport, it is the opposite step. First of all, you have to apply to the airport customs and affix the exit stamp, and then go to the return counter.
