Why buy tourist trinkets? Buy something the place is known for rather than junk that will eventually get thrown away.

I wanted clothing. I had hoped to buy "special series" made in the USA and only sold in the USA. (Converse, Harley, NYC police from their museum, etc). I love Japan for that strategy: usually they have a special serie made in Japan which is better quality (and more expensive).

Overpriced cocktails and the arts.

Neither is particularly easy to pack in a suitcase.

I think buying artwork (or prints) from local artists is one idea. You can find them in gift shops or art shops, and can be fun things like magnets, small knick-knacks or large posters.
