I'm visiting Korea next month. Wondering if Centrum and Flintstones are good presents for a family. I heard that Centrum is expensive there but I dunno if Flintstones is also available there.

Can you also please tell me the approximate cost of these vitamins?

Thank you!

I seem to remember Centrum being priced at 30,000 won, which means that vitamins are probably at least double whatever the cost in your country.

Centrum at 30,000 won for how many caplets?

Centrum 360 caplets is about 19 euros in where I live (tax-free).
Flintstones 60 tablets is about 8 euros (tax-free).

Just don't bring Centrum Silver, haha. I can see it now...

What a great idea. Vitamins are so expensive here.

Careful with the Flintstones. Make it clear that they are vitamins and NOT candy. Otherwise, you might get the kids eating the whole bottle in one day.
