The Yahoo Travel site offers some more good ideas for shopping in Tel Aviv with personal recommendations from travellers:
Israel is notorious for its pick pocketing children, often very young : try and stay alert even if you’re absorbed with looking at an ancient monument. Don’t put your wallet in your back pocket, be wary of anyone who bumps into you apparently by accident. Don’t flash money around, try to have small notes and coins in a place that’s easy to reach when it comes to buying things on the street. Leave credit cards at home or in the hotel safe if possible. Should you fall victim to a crime it’s important to act quickly: cancel any stolen credit cards immediately and file a police report.
Remember that Shabbat, the Jewish holy day, is on Saturday, so Sunday will feel like Monday to most of us.
