Get cheaper duty-free before arriving at the airport with clever tip
There are more than 20 airports in the UK where shoppers can benefit from the Reserve and Collect discount
For many holiday-goers, a visit to World Duty Free is as thrilling as the holiday itself. From travel exclusives to significantly discounted perfumes, beauty products and alcohol, a bit of retail therapy really is the best way to kick-start your holiday.
And for those jetting off this summer, we've discovered a brilliant way to get even more money off the already discounted goodies, just by doing one thing before you depart. Shoppers can currently bag an extra 10% off their World Duty Free basket if they reserve their items online, and collect them at the airport before jetting off.
This deal allows shoppers to enjoy even larger savings on premium spirits, designer fragrances and high-end skincare, without the airport stress of last-minute shopping. Instead, customers can browse online, select their airport pick-up location and not part with a penny until collecting the items before boarding.
One of the items included in the offer is the Johnnie Walker Black Label Triple Cask Edition Blended Scotch Whisky. The one-litre bottle is a travel retail exclusive, priced at £38.59.
With the 10% saving, it drops to £34.73. A regular 70cl bottle of Johnnie Walker Black Label usually costs £35.38 at Asda , so to get an extra 30cl and a much more exclusive version of the tipple for less is rather impressive indeed, reports the Manchester Evening News.
The triple cask edition is the third in the Black Label family and is characterised as 'sweet, fruity and spicy', making it an excellent Father's Day gift. It's matured in Whisky and Bourbon Oak casks before being finished in a Caribbean Rum Cask, which gives it its unique flavour profile with notes of brown sugar, toffee, orchard fruit, vanilla and a hint of smoke.
There's also a deal on selected whiskies where customers can purchase two bottles for £45. This includes Chivas Regal's 12-Year-Old Blended Scotch Whisky, which retails at £46.55 on the high street but is priced at £27.89 at World Duty Free.
As part of this offer, shoppers can get two bottles for less than the price of one full-priced high street bottle. The only drawback is that the 10% off for Reserve and Collect can't be used alongside other deals like this one.
For those stocking up on skincare ahead of a holiday, the Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm 125ml is reduced from its RRP of £34 to £28.30, before dropping a further 10% to £25.47 at the checkout when using Reserve and Collect. This lightweight cleansing balm swiftly dissolves stubborn eye and face makeup, including those with sunscreen.
The cheapest we found on the high street was at LookFantastic, where it's currently 21% off at £26.95.
Shoppers can enjoy up to a 40% discount on fragrances at duty free, perfect for those wanting to snag a signature scent while holidaying. We've spotted a deal on Carolina Herrera's Good Girl Blush Elixir Eau de Parfum - normally £108 at Boots , you can bag a 50ml bottle for just £85.30 at the airport, and with the extra discount, it's down to £76.77.
For holidaymakers pondering using this service, bear in mind that orders must be made at least 24 hours before passing through security - a downside for last-minute shoppers, but a boon for the well-prepared organisers who prefer to secure everything ahead of time.
Even if you're not jetting off anywhere soon but are still keen to snap up duty free bargains, Stena Line is currently offering Duty-Free day trips where shoppers can venture between Holyhead and Dublin from only £10 per person, indulging in their duty free store filled with over 450 premium brands.
World Duty Free has been showered with reviews from its users. One satisfied customer remarked: "I had exceptional service today by a very knowledgeable young Lady Katie. There was a great range of products and she couldn't do enough for me. I would recommend this shop and will be using it again when I next travel."
One customer gushed: "The best thing about WDF was their helpful and friendly staff member Uzma M. Uzma exceeded expectations with assistance on purchasing souvenirs to pointing the way to my gate and reclining chairs. Without Uzma I would have departed without making a purchase. WDF sales and ratings can only go up with great role model staff members like her!".
However, not all feedback was glowing, as one traveller noted: "Heathrow Terminal 2. Bought some UK gin at a reasonable price compared to US price. Unfortunately, they charged in US dollars with a 3% mark up - no one mentioned that it was going to be charged in US dollars and not GB pounds. Make sure you are charged in UK pounds as your credit card will save you a 3% mark up."
Another satisfied customer shared: "I have wonderful experience provided by Sigita in Bristol airport. Very fabulous experience and very knowledgeable of perfume products. She is the great. Thanks a lot. Ingrida."
