- Buy electronics : with the AUD so high, they are much cheaper than over here

- Buy electronics at a major brand : they can’t actually rip you off because you are a foreigner

- Find someone that can speak Cantonese to show you around

- Eat a major food chains – you’ve got no chance with only English at the small local stores

- 999 is the emergency number (not 000)
