We went there this morning.

They have:

9-pack variety instant oatmeal for 1,000 won a pack!!!

and

3 per box alcho-pop for 4,725won (5,300 won with 25% off), so making it 1,575 won a bottle.

Guinness is also 25% off = 2,550 a bottle.

I got 5 boxes of those oatmeal - not many left, if you want some go quickly!

Ouch!!

Find a foreign goods market near you and look for Quaker Oats Variety Packs in a box of 55. A measly 23,000-26,000 won depending where you go. Hannam-dong, Seoul "Red Door" Foreign Foods market has them next to the Volvo Buiding.

That lasts me about 5 weeks.

Hey Tzechuk, I also purchased 5 boxes in triumph!

When I read yr post I thought I had you trumped, cus I thought I'd bought 6 or seven, but after a ready stock-take, I see it's only 5.

I think I'd better mosey over there again tomorrow because they form a vital part of my new year's resolution strategy.

I could easily see from my trial run last week that they're goin fast.

And I don't wanna lose out!!
