def. buy clothing at home, or rent from home... you will waste time on the first morning getting it sorted, and if having lessons may miss your group entirely the first day if you get there late
be a bit careful if you do buy in the BG resorts - there is still a lot of counterfeit gear around...if the pices sound too good to be true they probably are - you need to be very careful with North Face stuff in particular
Having said for a long time I got very good use out of a pair of 10 lev Oakleys
TK Max, can get decent stuff cheap if your not wanting to spend much!!! I often pick stuff up from there, hat's gloves, salopettes etc etc etc and can spend it on
Hi Avalanche and Rich
I went to TK Maxx last night got my wee fella 2 dare2be fleeces for £7.99 and 2 pairs of ski socks for £1, thought I got a real bargain
