Why Prices are so less
As for why shopping is relatively cheap in comparison to other countries, there are a few reasons. Firstly, Dubai has a relatively low tax environment, which means that goods and services are generally cheaper than in other countries. Secondly, many of the products sold in Dubai are duty-free, meaning that they are not subject to taxes or duties, which can significantly reduce their cost. Finally, the high level of competition among retailers in Dubai has also contributed to the relatively low prices, as retailers often offer discounts and promotions to attract customers.
