    Hey guys!

    I'm off to London tomorrow for the day - planning on bringing back a bottle or two of alcoholic beverages from the duty free at the airport - just wondering what, if any, are the limits on bringing in alcohol from the U.K?

    There is no limit other than what you are allowed to take on the plane. If you like champagne, there is an offer on piper at the moment, 2 for £30 I think. They are also pushing Baileys at the moment as well.

    You are not allowed buy duty-free goods at the airport unless you are leaving the EU.

    You are allowed buy duty-paid goods, and the limits are generous enough. It can be worth buying them, because the taxes on alcoholic drink are lower in most other EU states than they are here.
