kraft do a really good paremesan cheese, which is kept on the grocery shelf. I bought two last year and have just run out. it is really cheap over in walmart.

if i had a big container to ship home I could easily fill it .........need i say more!

last year we went for halloween and ended up with nearly a pillowcase full of sweets to bring home, luckily we got away with excess baggage charge.

I will have to get my husband to read this thread as he can't get over the things I bring back.

And I thought I was the only one who went mad on shopping. Most of the things already mentioned here plus Honey Dijon sauces [msntongue], 5 litre bottles of Sangria [msntongue], glasses, stationery, Peanut butter and jelly spread etc etc etc .

OPI nail polish, cheaper than back here.
Tylenol PM works better for me than melatonin when it comes to jet lag and periods of poor sleep. Neosporin cream .. great first aid.
