Hi. I will keep this short. My wife and I collect refrigerator magnets. So far, no luck finding any here in Saudi. Any suggestions? Thanks

Dear Oreally,
If you're in Riyadh, try the American embassy - it has a "gift-shop"; I got some there. Wherever you are, keep on the lookout for compound sales; I also picked up fridge magnets at some of those (plus other nice mementos.)
Regards,
John
P.S. There are even some on-line:

and, my favorite (I'm a big fan of irony):

If you are in Al Khobar, try Zamil (downtown near the Corniche) or Party World (one or two streets off the Corniche)
