Exit the Blue Marlin. Go left down the hill and make a right and make the next left and about 1/2 way up the hill you will find Mas X Menos.Full service groceries, From deodorant to liquor cups ,snacks etc. Colones only. Great place to walk just a bit and get what you forgot to bring with you. Souvenirs across the street.

Remember: Pedestrians do not have the Right of Way; Pedestrians are called TARGETS in CR.

There is an AM/PM i think it is called just across the street from the Casino. Exit Marlin, turn left, walk to corner, cross street & you are there in 1 minute. They have just about everything any other grocery store has plus a by the slice pizzaria. Great pkace to buy bottled water & beer if you are on a shoestring budget, like I always am, & you don't have near as fer to walk to get back to the HDR!!

Yes, but perhaps the best place to buy is at the duty free store in the airport.

I sent a TXT to a girl on a Sunday morning to ask her if she worked on Sunday.

Her reply said that she was in church at the moment, but that she would be come over as soon as she was finished with church. And she wanted a beer.

Amen. :lol:
