Glasgow is a shopper's dream, with its large department stores, designer outlets, quirky boutiques, and unique markets. Join the throngs of style-conscious and unseasonally tanned locals along Argyle, Buchanan, and Sauchiehall streets. Should the weather turn dreich you can avoid getting drookit by sheltering in one of the many covered arcades in the city center. For more unusual items, head to the West End's Byres Road and Great Western Road.
