Since leaving the UK I really miss shops like Argos, Curry's and Tesco. I wish they had branches in Kenya. Other than Nakumatt what other shops are good for buying small electrical appliances like toasters, blenders, tea kettles and hair straighteners. I can't buy anything here in the US to bring over unfortunately. I'm sure my husband could care less about this sort of stuff as the place is a typical bachelor pad but it's a must for me.

'Hotpoint' has a good range of appliances. The prices aren't too bad compared to the UK, but probably more than the US.
