UK residents can bring back large quantities of both alcohol and tobacco provided they are purchased in duty-paid shops on the Continent and are for their personal use (not for sale to others). As the allowances are very generous and prices, particularly duty, are much lower in France for beer and spirits, substantial savings can be made.   Mortgage & Savings Guide 260 Job Figs Inc/Spend Moneyfile Annuities
