The first London insider tip is how to avoid jet lag when traveling to London. Look into leaving the States on a morning flight. I know American Airlines has morning flights out of both New York and Chicago; United out of Dulles. The beauty of that is that you travel during the day and arrive in the evening; go to bed; and wake the next morning refreshed with no jet lag!

Shopping Scam: False Receipts
Whether traveling here or abroad, many small shop owners view the tourist as a gullible target. While savvy travelers know that a product might be counterfeit, as well as possibly overpriced, here is something you might not have thought of. Some unscrupulous owners will give you a receipt from another store! That would make it impossible for you to return the product.
Always look carefully at the receipt to make sure that: (1) it is from that store; (2) the item you purchased is on it; and (3) the amount you paid for it is correct on the receipt. Otherwise, if you try to return it, they can claim, for example, you only paid half as much as you really did (according to the fraudulent receipt), and you won’t get a full refund!
