He's coming in a few weeks. So I told him you must mule some things for me.

Here's what I thought of:

1. deodorant
2. nyquil
3. charcoal/pepto bismol
4. melatonin
5. a throw if he has room

what am i leaving off...any other suggestions?

Cruise missiles. Can't find them in any of the shops here. Tried to have one sent over, but then realized there wouldn't be anything left to pick up.

If you're a cook, SPICES. I just got back from a 3 week States excursion and my whole frickin' carryon was full of expensive and hard to find spices, cold meds, real peppermint candies, baking instruments, dentyne gum, instant cookie mixes, and little gifts for my k friends

Nutella, Herbal Essences shampoo and mac and cheese can be found in Daegu and Seoul if you know where to look, I can give you directions if you want...

Spices and cold meds are a good idea! Mint, Tarragon, Dill, Sage are hard to find (you can get some of them fresh in Seoul but still...). Neo Citron is great when you're really sick and I haven't seen it anywhere here so that's a good thing to have...

drugs.

Extra strength Tylenol and Rolaids were always high on my list. I don't know why, but trying to find a Rolaids-like product in Korea was super hard. The closest thing I ever found were these super expensive painfully slow stomach medicines. Can't recall the names of some of them.
