Gangas Grandes

It starts today.

This time two years ago you could buy toilet paper in the big packs at about 7 cents a roll.

If anyone sees anything outragous like cheap ass wipe, food, booze or domestics, please post here. I'm hitting Carrefour and Exito today but I don't really need that much. I will keep my eyes open.

Yo no me puedo imaginar a Maribel con dos paquetes (uno en cada brazo) de 32 rollos de papel higienico con sticker que dice 50% de descuento por toda la calle. Eso es pa' tomarle foto.

This is just spanglish, please do not correct me

Roc: Why is it I recall a toilet paper thread (fairly long) some time in December 2007 or Jan 2008? One of the boys' favorite topics...Is there a recurring theme here? jajaaja

How was your experience with RAAAY? Did he give you a good deal on the mubles?
