Guam offers visitors a one-of-a-kind duty-free shopping experience with their variety of luxury and budget retailers across the island. Filipino travelers can definitely get their money’s worth with Guam’s outlet stores at Guam Premier Outlets and internatio­nal and luxury retailers at Agana Shopping Center, Micronesia Mall, Tumon Sands Plaza, The Plaza and T Galleria.

Shoppers can also maximize their retail therapy with Guam’s SGF coupon booklets and SGF mobile app for added discounts and special festival promotions.
