One of the things I was eagerly anticipating with the (temporary) move to the U.S. was the possibility of easier online buying. We have all experienced it: “Okay, I’ll just buy that from this web site… my shipping address… crap, they only ship to the U.S.”
Now that I’m here, I can buy all of the things I always wanted. They’ll just ship them straight to me, no problem.
Well, one problem: I can’t remember what any of those things were.
So, an interactive blog entry today. What are those things that are only available in the States that I can’t live without and should get while I’m here?
So far, I bought a spare camera battery from B&H (I could have got it in Canada, though). I thought about getting a chunk of aerogel from United Nuclear, but I’d tire of that quickly. I also bought a box of Cookie Crisp, but I’m not sure if that counts. (It wasn’t everything I was hoping for.)

Grape flavoured Gatorade powder!!
Really specific and kind of obscure, but that’s what I would get.

Anything at all from Thinkgeek, as the shipping won’t be 2/3’s of the bill.

Thanks Noah – you made me remember what I wanted to buy! http://www.pinoymall.com! Got dinged $20 GST charge at the post office when I ordered from them last time!
