Stuff from the dollar store:
Plackers
5 tooth brushes for a dollar for the girls.
Axe body spray
A pen to fill out the immigration form on the plane
You can go ahead and make a color copy of your Passport and laminate it in the states and just tape a copy of the CR entrance stamp to the back when you get here.
Some two dollar bills if you bank has any. These are always a conversation piece with the girls.
Imodium - Better safe than sorry

You may want to add these to your order. Durex Extra Sensitive Condoms for 17 cents each. These are more than 50 cents each in Costa Rica.

Don't forget the crayons and the coloring books. Both go over quite well....not just with the birds of the night, but housekeeping staff members as well. Trust me on this reminder.....

This kind of a half ass list of stuff I shouldn’t have brought and things I should have.

I bought about 4 cosmetic bags at the dollar store. In them I put soaps, shampoos, body creams, toothpaste and I had a shitload of tooth brushes. Also stopped by the Marcedo for some cheap chocolate bars. I let the chicas pick out on of each for there bag. I only had 2 shower caps and saved those for when the girls too showers in my rooms.

Q-tips Dimmit! You never think of q-tips until you are out of the phucking shower. And then never again until you are out of the phuking shower.

An extra bag of clothes, I didn’t even were half my shirts. A couple of them I really wanted to but the need to be ironed badly and I was paying enough to get them washed.

More socks. I had spent a lot of cash on socks before I left and it really paid off , but a few more pair would have worked and a couple more.

On clearance I got some U of M shirts for $2.30 each. I bought 2 small and 2 medium. None of the bib boob girls wanted there pics taken in them. I gave the 2 smalls to 2 very nice girls. Hope the pics will be posted soon.

I brought $2500 with me which was tapped out by Saturday night. Bank of america own BCR so the charges were like a dollar. That would have saved me worrying about my money all the time.

I will add more as my tr goes on.

On more thing bug spry. I had Dolce & Gabbana light blue although this worked it was not very cost effective.
