I got the red bottle. It says 3% I was told that this is the most full fat milk.

You are saying thats like the blue in the US? (low fat)

I don't know where you got that bottle. The blue ones I have in my fridge are 3 % I think the red bags are 1 percent .The 1 % cartons are the same color as the 3 % if I remember correctly

Got it thanks.

Bottom line, 3% = red milk..

Also, which water here tastes the most similar to say Poland Spring? I used to like מי עדן but that also has a taste of some added minerals. I like water with no taste..

Along the same lines, which imported waters are available if you don't like any of the Israeli?

San Benedetto imported from Italy tastes pretty good not that much more expensive than mey eden.

Posting in case the info is useful:
Almost all Prime deals are killed by the need to ship to Israel, but if anyone happens to notice something that works, PLEASE post for our benefit.

I'll start:
The free Corel software (obviously), because it is a download

I got 100% leather Rockport dress shoes with free shipping, paying $25 less than the last time I ordered them. Check for yourself! Log in and set your Israel address. Use the filter on the side and : 1) check off free shipping, 2) check off your size, 3) check off wether you are looking for regular, wide or narrow, and 4) (optional) check off color - I only wear black. Then sort the list by price, and it should accurately show the final price for the shoe in your size. Here's one example for $53 (12W): Rockport Men's Charles Road Plain Toe Oxford (~~$59.99~~ $53.08)

This DDMS deal ships to IL free. Significant savings off of IL prices. $14.49
Play-Doh Modeling Compound 24-Pack Case of Colors, Non-Toxic, Multi-Color, 3-Ounce Cans, Ages 2 and up (Amazon Exclusive) (~~$17.99~~ )

These ties ship free also. They are usually about $4 more. $13 and change, depending on color
HISDERN Solid Color Ties for Men Formal 3.35" Necktie Business Tie and Pocket Square Set Classic Satin Mens Wedding Ties (~~$20.99~~ $13.59)

I paid $12 for these - but it looks like they changed the coupon from 40% to 20% now. Still a decent price for 40 normal pieces (only squares and triangles).
Magnetic Tiles Toys for 3 4 5 6 7 8+ Year Old Boys Girls Upgrade Macaron Castle Magnetic Blocks Building Set for Toddlers STEM Creativity/Educational Toys for Kids Age 3-6 Christmas Birthday Gifts (~~$51.99~~ )

I thank @mevinyavin for his Idea, though I think it should be a separate thread in the amazon board, maybe even a sticky there. rather than clog up this thread...

I hear, but the truth is that this thread is all about where one can obtain something in Israel, and although it seems more like a place to ASK about these things, it is surely also a place to suggest where to get things?
Unless you want a thread just for people to tell other people where they found things.
