Will have to give that a try, but just thought of another thing I can't get in the UK, is Patrons tequila. and that is prime stuff compared to jose cuervo

I normally bring at least two home with me. if hubby travels with me.

I'm a fan of Williams Sonoma and they sell some pretty special foodstuffs but they're outrageously expensive. I can't speak for their drink mixers but last year I treated myself to a jar of their Texas Chilli sauce which cost the equivalent of just over £9. It was good, but not that good!

I think you can get their range by mail order.

I also bring back Nellie & Joes Key Lime juice, plus a couple of bottles of their Key Lime & Mango juice. It now comes in plastic botles, so easier & safer to carry.

Lucky Charms - you used to get them here but they stopped them because of the E numbers. Mountain Dew is also very hard to get here although we did find a store in Covent Garden last week selling it.

My children love Mountain Dew and Lucky Charms too. I've seen it advertised in the UK to buy but at ridiculous prices so refuse to buy and that way it is a special treat when we are in the US
