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.”\n<\/p>\n
\nNow that I’m here, I can buy all of the things I always wanted. They’ll just ship them straight to me, no problem.\n<\/p>\n
\nWell, one problem: I can’t remember what any of those things were.\n<\/p>\n
\nSo, 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?\n<\/p>\n
\nSo far, I bought a spare camera battery from B&H<\/a> (I could have got it in Canada, though). I thought about getting a chunk of aerogel<\/a> from United Nuclear<\/a>, but I’d tire of that quickly. I also bought a box of Cookie Crisp, but I’m not sure if that counts.
