Duty Free Allowance - per person or per family?
I believe US has per-family duty free allowances for alcohol. How does UK operate? Customs site says it's 1 liter duty-free - if Mrs herzmeh and I arrive with, say, 2 liters, are we good to go? Also, I know I have to pay duty on anything over, but realistically, do they even bother if you're 1 or 2 liters over?
I frequently cross into Canada to stock up on booze at duty free store at the border and CBP doesn't bother with collecting duty on a few bottles of booze (we're talking under $10 total or so).
