What’s the one thing you can’t buy ? - Page 3

We do go to larger towns but there are no significant numbers of ex Pats for the supermarkets to stock the items mentioned, and why should they. I was responding to the original question of what WE cant buy from spanish supermarkets. I can live without the items mentioned I was just joining in with my response. I have no desire to drive to the coast for a tin of syrup!

Have we met?? Could we?! 🤣🤣🤣 

There is few expats where I live so local supermarkets don’t stock British goods but I do have to attend Santa Lucia Hospital or Ka Rosell Hospital in Cartagena, whilst there I call into Carr3four if I need anything. When people visit we go to the coast or the into the Sierras we may call for a few items and notice products. Never a hassle and for friends and relations gives them something to talk about. 

I'm sure they sell fairy (or fiary as the spanish call it. Lol) in most big supermarkets. I think carrefour sell it. I've found asda products in the Chinese store so it's worth looking in these stores too for hard to find items 

hi 

welive near Archena and you can get Fairy Liquid in Aldi there

Isn’t it great that our only worries about living in Spain is the availability of Fairy Liquid and Ovaltine. But let’s worry about such things Manana. 😎

Thank you all. 

I was just driving over from the UK and was debating bringing some stuff over. I was certainly wasn’t trying to cause any bad feelings between people. 

Merry Chris

It was a good question and I understand its sentiment. As always its personal choice and dependant on where you live. I always bring golden syrup and at christmas a Christmas pudding. Thank you for the question. Happy Christmas 

Hi Ann I dont live very close to archena but it was the closest option on the list. Thank you

MOVE TO THE COAST(near Iceland) or move back to the uk ! SIMPLE!
