Shopping in Guildford

Being in a foreign country it is not always easy to know where to buy the things that you need.  Unfamiliar shops and product names only add to the language difficulty!  Below are some links to information that might be of use, with a list of basic things you may need or want and suggested places where you may get them.

If you find any incorrect or inaccurate information on this page, please e-mail me!  It is difficult to keep this information accurate and up to date!
Also e-mail me if you think of any shops or services in or near Guildford that may be useful to international students, especially if you think they may not be familiar with them, or if you are an international yourself and have discovered somewhere useful to you!
Thank you!
