Hi You could look at Damas for brand n Joylukkas is another big seller of Indian designs and has a number of stores in the UAE besides other players available in Meena Bazaar & Gold Souk Deira Do bargain , before you buy , check with other shops. All major cards are accepted ,However American issued cards charge a foreign transaction fee for purchases made outside US U may get good rate in Currency Coonversion prefrably Money exchangers in the city.Currency conversion at hotels is least favourable. Hope it helps , Dubai is an awesome place , enjoy your stay !
