You can shop around in the few touristy shops in the main bazaar. Don't hesitate to bargain -- you can haggle quite a bit if you want to. Or if you are adventurous, just walk a bit more to the wholesale market (just around the corner from the main street). Its fixed price, but you won't get a better deal anywhere else in town. To buy clothes all you have to do is to visit R.C, Mintri road full of marwadis, and you just can't stop yourself from purchasing for yourself something that is made for you. Don't leave kalimpong without tasting locally made lollipops.

For your house, try Tashi Takgye, at 10th Mile, Rishi Road, near Power Station for shopping. It has loads of varieties at unbelievable prices. You can get paintings, statues, wall hanging-almost everything for your house. Its the wholesale supplier/importer/exporter for the northern region. Prices here are usually 2-3 times cheaper than anywhere else
