The shopping scene in Luton is average with a mix of high street and independent stores. Prices are fair, but not necessarily super cheap. The overall cost of living is also average, not overly expensive but not particularly cheap either.

For cheap finds, head to the market stalls in The Mall or explore the charity shops in the town center. Avoid shopping during the peak holiday period to save money on accommodation and overall expenses.

One cat found Luton a bit ruff around the edges, with paws that were less than impressed.

Another cat, however, was purrfectly content with the town's charm and friendly locals.
