Shopping on Antigua

Shopping on Antigua
Handy guide to basic shopping on Antigua if you are staying on the island for more than a few days. May be a bit outdated since it was written based on experience around 1999/2000.

Btw, there is an Epicurean supermarket in Jolly Harbour. It at least just as expensive as the one at Wood Centre, but much more convenient for those staying at or close to Jolly.

I don't care for the vegetarian part of the discussion, but it contains references to several good Montreal poutine places.

2 travel items you didn't know you needed! - FlyerTalk Forums

2 travel items you didn't know you needed! - FlyerTalk Forums:
"1) Ex-Officio Give-n-Go boxer briefs - their motto is '17 countries. 6 weeks. 1 pair of underwear. Okay, maybe 2.' I put some liquid Tide in a bottle and 2 pairs of boxers lasted all 10 days & were comfortable & dry & ready to go (serioulsy, worth the $25/pair) - they have a wide variety of styles.

All you have to do is just wash them in the sink, roll them in a hotel towel, stomp them dry, and hang up for a few hours & they'll be ready by morning. Read the REI reviews here - http://www.rei.com/product/694431

2) Dr Scholl's Double Air Pillo insoles - about $3/pair at CVS. I had leather shoes & wore them every day while I was traveling. Did a lot of walking & bought an extra pair to keep in my luggage just in case. They were amazing."
