Hi all, I need some suggests as to what hand letters to buy for HK relatives and friends.

I've already bought salmon, chocolates, canned oysters, cookies, hand lotions, cosmetics.

This year, I want to buy something else that HK doesn't have. Any suggestions please..............

Some "Canada feel" (or "Vancouver feel") stuff? Such as maple syrup? Or some nice postcards with "Beautiful British Columbia" sceneries? (haha....)

唔知你有無見過一D好似牙齒咁既軟糖? 通常 Halloween 個排會有得賣，不過有時都有機會有。我奶奶係小學做，我地買過返去比佢派比Ｄ小學生，嘩！排長龍搶住要呀！！

我幫香港親友買過既奇怪野有：
１）牙簽（佢地話加拿大Ｄ木牙簽靚好多）
２）Q-tips （佢地鐘意加拿大出多過香港出既）
３）Always Light Days （佢地話好舒服，係香港搵唔到）
４）Fresh Blueberries （香港好貴）
５）Cranberry Juice （香港唔容易搵到）

唔好講笑，第三樣係我買得最多返去既野，次次都係 Costco 入貨帶返去。

依家多一樣，就係 Vaseline 既 Problem Skin Therapy 潤膚膏。加拿大出，美國同香港都無得賣，Shoppers 賣四蚊一支，我已經收到三個 order 叫我買返去。

I have a question about wine. How many bottles of wine can I bring to HK?
作者: 布小熊    時間: 2008-5-11 19:55

my bf said 1 bottle of red/white/ice wine. (HK residents) visitor from other country can bring either 1 bottle of red/white/ice wine or 1L liquor.

You can get other red wine in HK. If you like OLD world wine, HK has bigger French and Italian wine select. For new world, I think it's easier to get Australian wine there. N. American wine is not as popular as far as my last visit there.

Don't put your own sticker on yet (I guess you'll have the one with your own photo on, right?), and pretend that they're "home made soy sauce", then stick the sticker on in HK, haha....!

Aiya, never thought of it tim. Already put the stickers on la! But then, I don't want to lie to customs either. So it's ok.

Seafood.....geoduck....still live, but not fresh? So that means alive but kind of dead? Sorry, not sure what you mean...

Just some dry ice pack and then wrap in a big box.

Yeah, but after the long flight and no food, they are kinda not very active. But yeah...if I put water on the lobster, they will "move" again.

Would you like to bring some t-shirts with native-art prints?  I'm selling some clearance t-shirts from a local factory, $4 each (or buy 6 for $20).  I can show them on Saturday.   A customer bought 20 t-shirts for souvenirs to Europe

You can't handcarry wine?
作者: 布小熊    時間: 2008-5-16 08:58

You can ONLY hand carry wine if you get them from duty free stores (at the airport after security check). I had packed (with bubble wrap in a hard suitcase) ice wine in my check-in luggage and brought to HK without breaking it.

And the duty free stores have VERY few selection for BC ice-wine.....
