Stores are ...Yeah, shopping is a definite downside. Stores are closed when I get home from work and groceries mold and spoil much faster too so it's hard to even plan ahead much. Plus shopping is so expensive, it really takes the fun out of browsing when I know I can get the exact same thing in another country for half the price. And with better customer service too.Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08116587046045234305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33066213.post-42650936391628701102009-02-25T18:56:00.000+01:002009-02-25T18:56:00.000+01:00Yikes, we're here in part to see if we want to liv...Yikes, we're here in part to see if we want to live here. You already hit a few cons on my list. The shopping thing is so strange. One store I want to go to doesn't open till 4 and is open till 7. Another one, I've been to twice because I can't read the handwriting for the open times, and neither time was it open (in the late afternoon). How do these people make a living and buy their expensive eggs?! PS. Our baby won't take a bottle anymore so I was looking for formula to mix with her cereal since she just started eating solid food. In the states you can buy a small bottle of formula for about $6. Here they only have the powdered kind in big cans for SFr 29, at least every placed I've checked doesn't have the liquid kind for infants in a small bottle. Oh well.Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00215779983063891863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33066213.post-68551410091616946862009-02-14T11:52:00.000+01:002009-02-14T11:52:00.000+01:00Oh, shopping back home!

Shipping is free, so you can order your stuff separately to come in small packages and avoid customs taxes. It's generally cheaper than amazon too.Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08116587046045234305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33066213.post-6267738979863899542009-02-13T09:37:00.000+01:002009-02-13T09:37:00.000+01:00ooh I love it that you are fired up.
