You're correct, Irina, I've bought it there for hubby who is a fan! I've also gotten it @ Grand Marche near the rotary, upon occasion. Hard to find, though.

Annmarie,

I, too, have had trouble on occasion locating Diet Pepsi but I've never looked for diet cream.

I can heartily recommend Lesley Bruce of Kennys Car Rentals for a very good rental car experience - bruce@sintmaarten.net - about the only thing I can say from first hand experience about the others is the names you think you know, Hertz, Avis, Budget, etc. - are not the same as dealing with those companies here at home.

Have a good trip.

Respectfully,

pat

Yes they have alot of different sodas at Prime.
Great place for mixers also. We used to buy Mrs. T's by the case there!
Cheers

irina,

I'm almost embarassed to ask this, but where EXACTLY is Prime Grocers in Almond Grove?

Given my incredible sense of direction, I'd be coming through the intersection from hell and heading towards the border and I just can't place it.

Uh, Senior moment, ya think? Don't answer that, irina!!

Respectfully,

pat

Pat - it's along the road that runs up the side of the Harley dealership.

We were in there the first tine this week. Not impressed.

Prime is a big old ugly warehouse and they supply the grand marche stores.
If you are buying by the case, they have good prices. otherwise it is just a warehouse

Right. It's not a "pretty" warehouse.
Though that's where alot of restaurants and shops get their merchandise so the prices are very good if you buy by the case. We would run into Pierre, Linda etc there.
We used to go there for that reason. Plus our condo had lot's of storage so we did buy things by the case, gallon whatever.
Cheers
