Where shall I buy baby clothes (not traditional Spanish clothes). Carrefour, Benneton? She's a Christmas baby.
Sisters 10 and 7 (no brothers). To be sent to the U.S. (not yet).
Primark, Kiabi, Alcampo in jerez all have good selection. Zara kids in town Chiclana have nice stuff too. ****
don't forget pepco, they have nice bits ****
el Cortes inglés ****
Benetton, Zara, GAP and Primark all have stores in the US so you may be able to order online
and get delivery directly to the address in the US which would probably save you a fortune ****

(on another local expat site recently) author: Hi i need to get a potability water sample carried out for my villa rentals, any idea where i can get this done please Biocentrol Laboratories, Calle Juan Sebastion Eleano 12. www.biocentrol.com. Off the main avenue towards the Blue Bridge on the right. We took sample in one day and collected the next. I think 4 years ago it cost in the region of €80 for a full test **** that is where went too, they provide you with the pot to collect the sample in. **** I believe most pharmacies will send this out for you. We got ours done on El Colorado. **** |
