It seems that the british pound is still on its way down. for the first time in the 5 years that I have been in Madrid it is now actually cheaper for me to buy things in the UK rather than here!

I am about to by my wife an iPod on Amazon UK and it works out almost €45 cheaper than buying it here in Madrid (for the prices I have seen anyway).

So, if anyone is thinking of buying pressies, check out Amazon.co.uk for prices as well, you might find stuff cheaper (especially gadgets and electronics).
