My Dubious Suitcase
« Reply #10 on: June 14, 2008, 12:35:02 PM »
Talkin of dubious suitcases, yeah I know there will be a thread somewhere, so I will post it in here, what can I foodwise take and not take in my case?
I knnow Ive read about bacon etc, but I was thinking dry foods, even like packet noodles for the children as a snack (saves money!) when we stay in our apartment for the day.
And toilet rolls, is it worth taking them or are they cheap in Turkey?
Why toilet rolls you ask is that in this house gettin through one a day is nothing, thats when theres no one in for the day here, its that bad, I have never known anything like it :)
So please let me know what some of you take, as consumables, I know there might be one or two sarky replies, but it would be handy to know what regulars to the area take if they are self catering.
Cheers
Ste

You really don't need to take toilet rolls.  They are very bulky and take up so much space.  They are cheap enough in Turkey (same as here, depends on the quality you buy).  The supermarkets are similar prices as over here for most things.  I usually take bathroom bits (shampoo, toothpaste etc) just enough to keep us going until we do a shop.  Also take our own teabags (fussy hubby, lol) and a bit of coffee and powdered milk - again, just enough for a couple of days until we shop.  The small local supermarkets are not too badly priced either and seem to be open all night, should you arrive very late.

If you are going to Calis then there is a brilliant little shop down by the Oykun hotel, the man that runs it is called Rammi and he will deliver all your purchases free of charge i.e 8 litre water containers 24 Efes all delivered free of charge, has two little sweet daughters as well they are so gorgeous.
