Great!, another business to add to the “Do Patronize” list. The list of those not to patronize has gotten far too long.

I love the two Duty Free MALLS at Heathrow. I always go to the airport from London early to shop and enjoy. Now I’ll shop more if this is the case there too.

It’s an imaginary place, like Wakanda in the Black Panther movie.

There are no settlements in Palestine as it doesn’t exist. Never has, never will.

So much for BDS as a boycott of Israel. An American company with 180 to 200 stores, including one in Eilat, Israel. Jew owner, donates to Israel. Boycott him. Like boycotting US based Sabra hummus. US company now jointly owned by an Israeli company, Strauss Group, and Pepsico. Wonder if AOC boycotted Pepsi as a bartender.

LOL the duty-free areas at Heathrow get me every time. I have to exercise self control or else I can’t carry it all on board my flight.

I believe it means that international travelers can shop without the “duty” of paying sales tax

I have NO IDEA what Israel makes, but if it is something I use I will buy at least one thing that is made there.

Uplula speed loaders. Wonderful products. You will never load a magazine by hand again. Got one for the AR and all the handguns.

But if I buy something in Singapore and bring it to the US, won’t I have to pay tax to bring it into the US?

You dont’t have to pay duty on it when traveling from one country to another. at least that’s how I always justified buying there.
