recently went through customs with 3 suitcases 2 handbags and a shopping bag which included a brand new laptop, 2 tablets one of which was brand new, an iphone, a bag of meat and onions. the guy says, you travelled yourself, i say yes, he says put all my stuff through xray machine. my heart skips a beat. after stuff goes through all he asks me is whats in my shopping bag to which i reply macarons and chocolate.
praise the Lord!

yeah they dont really sell them here. only one company sells microscopic ones on a shrinkwrapped foam tray.

another thing they dont sell here are LIMES, but its too hard to bring em in

I hear ya.  I cant talk because for the first few years I lived here..I brought everything from America (ie. ketchup and mayo)..then I realized it was a waste.  Now just bring meat and all the important stuff.
