It caters for visitors from neighbouring Macau where prices are higher than the mainland, so it does not need to be so competitive. Also as a tourist trap type of location, many vendors have very highly inflated first prices and you really need to know real prices elsewhere to get real bargains. I would recommend Guangzhou, which although not a recognised tourist city has quite a few interesting places to visit. In fact, there are more tourist sites in Guangzhou than Zhuhai (I have spent quite a lot of time in both cities). It sounds like you will only enter the Chinese mainland once, so a single entry tourist visa should be sufficient. Many nationalities do not need a visa for Macau but you will need to check. Travel agents can usually answer this for you.
