we really wanted to buy some clothes in their shopping plaza. but their shopping mall or plaza are not big and there is no special brand. we were disappointed that we didn't have anything to buy and wasted our time to look around.

our advices--
dun spend anytime in shopping, spend more time in sunbathing and enjoying facilities in your resort, or grab foods in the Night Market.

Note:
1. people says that chocolates are cheap in Langkawi, but we found that the prices are higher than our city(HK or Macau). so we didn't buy any chocolate for our friends even there are many types and brands!
2. yogurts in this rich nature resources island are cheap, so we drank yogurts every day and night. generally it only costs RM 4~4.3/750ml(1 bottle), extremely cheaper than those in our city!

3. we found the reasonable prices for snacks and yogurts in COCO VALLEY MARKET(in the KUAH TOWN, near Bayview Hotel)
