TL;DR
For more normal, non-resort pricing, head to Senzo Mall, where there are nearby shop rows and a supermarket inside the complex. Makadi Bay and Sahl Hasheesh have limited shopping and generally higher prices.
Sahl Hasheesh is pleasant for walks along its seafront promenade and coastal road, but it is not ideal for serious shopping: there are few shops and prices are reported to be very high. For essentials, there is a pharmacy and two supermarkets.
Senzo Mall is a practical option for shopping outside the hotel zone: it has a supermarket and nearby shop rows. A good-quality suitcase was found there after a sea excursion.
Shopping in Makadi Bay tends to cost more because it is far from the city. For less tourist-oriented prices, plan a trip to Senzo Mall rather than relying on shops within the bay.
