Fancy nipping in tomorrow. Where can you park that's cheap?

It's much easier to park in the suburbs and jump on a tube.

ETA: Tube journey planner.

Nearly all single yellow and pay and display bays will be free on a Sunday. Head for just north of Oxford Street.

Any specific suburbs that are safe? Coming from the West.

How would one find one of these? Just to make sure I know a street I'm heading for...

New Cavendish St and streets off of it like Gt Portland St, Harley Street,Wimpole St etc. Just keep off residents bays,dropped kerbs and very close to the corner of a junction!
Get in fairly early although a lot of the big stores don't open till 12.00.

Had a look at those streets, but can't see any yellow bays. Or do you mean single yellow line, you can park on those?

Whoops, missed out the word lines. Yes Sundays around there will be okay to park on a single yellow line. As said, resident bays will be 7 days a week so double check the signage. Most pay and display bays are now pay by phone/text, so information regarding chargeable times are on lamp post signs.
