I JUST have to put my two cents in and say that York has some of the finest shopping opportunities you can ask for.
That includes all the little shops in York itself, the shopping malls outside and some of the market towns nearby, like Helmsley, Pickering and Thirsk.
I come to Yorkshire every year from Washington DC and I can honestly say that I always find all the things that I am looking for.
You have a great variety of shops in York. I was pleased to hear that H&M fashion shop had opened (I'm Swedish). They seem to be very popular here in Washington DC and I hope it'll be the same in York. It is a joy to shop in a city like York with the historical ambience, the huge selection of shops and to be able to have a cuppa at Bettys afterwards. It cannot be beat. I also enjoy all your charity shops with their fine selections, which we do not have here to the same extent.
Go York!
