two questions here: (1) where do i find the normal western pumpkins and approximately how much are they? i'm looking to buy 5 or 6 for my school

(2) i've heard that water jugs can be ordered right to your apartment. does anyone have information on that (phone number, price)?

any help is always appreciated!

My school is ordering us 100 pumpkins and I believe they are getting them from the Incheon Agricultural Market behind the Incheon Bus Terminal Station. (worth checking out for fruits and veggies) They ordered by phone and are having them delivered.

You can get water delivered in 18 liter bottles for 5000 each. As long as you order 4 a month, they give you the dispenser with on demand hot and cold water for free. I have my guys number to call for refills, but I don't know where he comes from. I live in Incheon.

I bought mine from the local market last year. He had 2-3. They cost about 6,000 won at the time. Lugging two of them on the bus really sucked. Get your CT to help drive you if possible.

bump.

i really need to find pumpkins in the seoul area.

it's really last minute now, because i had mentioned it to my co-teacher weeks ago, and just today she decided it's a good idea and we should do it Mad

please help! i don't want to spend my weekend taking the bus all over seoul to find a market that sells them, does anyone know of a place that definitely carries them?
