Koukla, sweetness and light..

Which supermarket is the best in Pireaus for:

Suncream
Lotion
Tampons
Olive oil
Water
Booze


We'd love to invite you for a beer around 16.00 next Wednesday (26th) if you'd like to meet a dysfunctional Finnish family..

hahahaha Matti thanks for the post!!!!lol! :P

Here goes:

Suncream :
Lotion:
Tampons
Olive oil
Water
Booze

All the above items can be found at Carrefour:
I gather u didnt bring the above items w/ you eh ? :P well you can try Carrefour which is near Marina Zeas ( 7-10min walk from the port)it's one of the biggest super market chains in Greece and there is a big variety compared to other SM so u will have a better choice in brands and prices!

since you will b here on vacations I dont see the reason to make you "travel" around for these few items in order to save at most total 1-2 euros, you SHOULD AVOID buying all above items at kiosk variety stores(which you will see are spread on each block ALL around Greece because they will sell you the same items for 50-100% over SM prices, water bottles(500ml) are 0.50euros at kiosk variety stores and 1L are at 1 euro, if you stock up in S markets(if you dont want to drink the faucet water from your hotel that is) you can get the 500ml for like 20-25 euro CENTs and the big 1L bottle for maybe 0.50euros, and it goes without saying if you buy 12 packs or 6packs then its even cheaper.

At 16.00 unfortunately I am still at my office, I am home in Piraeus usually by 7pm,(I dont work too close and public transit is not the fastest! lol)
How long will u be in Athens crazy family? :P
