I need to buy a financial calculator for my uni course. Anyone know where to get these sorts of things - i haven't bought a calculator anywhere for 20 years!

According to someone who sold their financial calculator on souq.com, it was purchased at Sheeba stores in Bur Dubai.

Try park and shop in Safa, they had loads of ALL types when i was looking last year. However they were in a glass case and I missed them the first time I was looking.

Have phoned as many places as I can think - Magrudy's etc....but everywhere has scientific calculators rather than financial ones. Does anyone have secondary school students studying finance/accounting or uni students? where do they get their calculators from?

I would usually just my computer or iphone but you can't take these into the exam...I also prefer to just download the textbook on my kindle/ipad but you can't take these in either so I have to have the specific textbook shipped for 260 dirhams from australia! such a pain. I haven't actually used a calculator since high school (a long time ago). Magrudy's or Kinokuniya. Althought they will probably be way overpriced so better to order online.

I've seen them in Office Depot in Mirdiff City Centre so maybe give them a call and see if they still stock them.

If you have an ipad or android phone you can download one. Some of them are free others are a dollar or so. I've only seen scientific calculators in the shops. Also a lot of the formulae you need will be available in Excel
