Couldn't find with a search; sorry if redundant question. We like some liquors not sold here. But don't want to donate any to customs by bringing too much! And would like to bring a computer monitor we already own, but it needs to be in a box as its 27 inches. It's not a TV, just a monitor...

Suggest everyone who is physically able to ever donate call Mary-Jo at x101 (809-571-4696) CENTRO MEDICO CABARETE and get on her list of donors. She keeps this list as a "live blood bank" due to limited blood donors. She sounds American on phone so easy for English speakers to talk with her. She...

Anybody know a hairdresser who works with Redkin color? Pretty common in the USA, but so far no luck here. Ladies understand already. But you guys may need to be told; this is serious!!:eek:

Anyone know of a place in the DR that offers Cold Laser treatments? I know it sounds crazy, but I tried it when in USA as nothing else was helping, including chiropractor + theraputic massage + stretching, over months of time. I was nearly magically relieved of long standing neck/back pain...

Where are good places to purchase cut flowers in Cabarete, Sosua area? Specifically want the tropical types and Bird of Paradise my current favorite. The only place I know is a street vendor in front of Janet's, but I am floored by the asking prices. He started at $RD600 per bunch (bunch...

I understand there are no rules and tipping is always optional and based on level of service rendered. But i would like to know conventions in the DR and others' advice please. Does one tip the gas station attendants and, if so, how much? How much does one tip the supermercado bag boy? How...

Cannot find our favorite Mexican dish here.......Chili Verde (kind of stew made with pork). Latest Mexican restaurants don't know what we are talking about when we ask. So am going to have to make it myself. However, I need a source for the New Mexico Chilis which range from mild to hot.....we...

Saw threads for using shippers in NYC, MIA, and even Canada. But getting barrels/boxes to those cities from the West is very expensive. Anyone know of shippers closer to Las Vegas? Loved WW's post about a prefab crate which would be even better; but how to ship it from Las Vegas to NYC at...
