SHOPPING HOURS

Normal shopping hours are Monday - Saturday 9:00am to 5:00pm. Although many stores still close at noon on Thursdays.


PAYMENT

Most stores accept both $EC and $US , but be sure to check when you ask a price (where it is not labelled) whether it is EC or US. It is not appropriate to bargain in shops and stores however it is expected at the Vendors Mall at Heritage Quay. Major credit cards are generally accepted in the Redcliffe and Heritage Quay shopping areas.

 
GETTING SERVICE

 
Again observance of greeting people in the store on your entry will win you much better service than if you do not speak – it doesn’t matter whether you are intent on buying or merely browsing – a greeting will help to gain better service.
