I'm in Australia and I'm coming home next week. Over here there are loads of shops in the main streets where you can do Duty Free Shopping and get some great savings on normal prices. An Austrlian friend asked me could I take her shopping in one of these shops, as they are apparantly only for tourists who are leaving the country. I'm just not too sure about how it works with the whole duty thing, and whether I am supposed to have these goods to declare at the ariport. Obviously they are for her so I will not have anything like that coming home with me, so I can just walk through the 'nothing to declare' isle, but I don't want any surprises. Is this ok or what can I do?

Any advise appreciated.
