Rarely ever buy any typical souvenirs. But will find a cool rock or truckload to bring home. Usually the only reason I travel is to find some crystals or something.

@Eyeinthesky no specials tools really needed. Just research online and in old books. Where to go. And what to look for.

@icedsky No doubt you are full of peace, mental wellbeing and harmonized mind around rocks at home..🍀

@icedsky beautiful✨

I think I bought some taffy the last time we were at the jersey shore....about ten years ago.
originnone · 61-69, M
@Eyeinthesky It's a thing at the jersey shore.....We used to go to cape may, which is the farthest point south.
Eyeinthesky · 56-60, F
@originnone I see, when I had a chance to go there, I will look for it..

@originnone it is the best, except if you have loose fillings! James and Fralingers. If I remember correctly, Fralingers comes in a longer thinner shape, easier to start eating, also has great flavors.

I'd get refrigerator magnets, plus things from microbreweries around the country.

@JohnnyNoir I used to collect mini bottles whiskeys from Scotland... I didn't think about here...

Practical:
Pen(s). Lightweight and practical :)
A pen is something you can find for cheap anywhere... if I see a pretty pen on a trip, I'd buy it and every time I use it, it brings nice memories 💗
Not so practical, but enjoyable:
I also enjoy it when I see original and cheap wearable items (bracelet, hair scrunchies, earrings). I don't wear many, but I like it when the ones I wear carry some good energy - tiny mood boosters 😊

@Busybee333 That is practical! Some cheap wearable items are excellent, I sill have a necklace from Bangkok and keep memories alive.🍀🤗

I buy shot glasses
Eyeinthesky · 56-60, F
@AndrewG that's right, my husband bought several for his coworkers... I forgot..

Surely there is no such thing as a useful souvenir!
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@Eyeinthesky Had some but I drew the line at fried bees and pigeon heads. Had dog, also had frogs legs, and a snake. But most other dishes were more conventional. In some places we taught the locals how to make some things that we liked from home.
Eyeinthesky · 56-60, F
@ninalanyon What a great experience you had...very adventurous👏💚
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@Eyeinthesky I was there on business, didn't really have any choice about exactly where I went. But it was a great adventure, long before China became the economic power that it is now.

Please come back and help yourself to more maple syrup. 😚 I can`t stand the stuff.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@Eyeinthesky Like I said. It is free if you can get away with it. 😬
Eyeinthesky · 56-60, F
@Degbeme tempting but living dangerously is not my thing..😂
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@Eyeinthesky Can`t say as I blame you.

I like to buy local food and drink, which I always find useful 😋
I also like picture postcards to send to my nieces, but they can be really difficult to find sometimes.

@SunshineGirl That's the fun part of traveling to have local food and drink..😄
NCCindy · 36-40, F
Funny.... Last time I was in the Northern part of Washington State, I was surprised how many Canadian license plates I saw in the Bellingham WA Costco parking lot.
Eyeinthesky · 56-60, F
@NCCindy We were glad that we could use the American Costco membership card in Canada..I guess Canadians can use their card here in America as well...😄

Smuggling Sensodyne across the border? Don’t get caught… lol
Eyeinthesky · 56-60, F
@Bill1372 Lucky that Sensodyne helped my sensitivity and I am so relaxed nobody notices..🤫
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
was that because of the exchange rate?
I love Gretsky's Ice Wine, if you can ever get some, buy it!

@Eyeinthesky That is weird, although Sensodyne does frequently go on sale here at Costco. Do they sell wine in Costco in Canada?
Eyeinthesky · 56-60, F
@samueltyler2 I saw a lot of wine...more than American Costco..
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@Eyeinthesky only some Costcos sell liquor. Our local Costco does, and I buy lots of my wine and spirits there. My problem with Costco is that i will buy 3 bottles and taste one, if we love it and go back, they may already be sold out. The regularly sell J Lohr cabernet sauvignon from the casa robles area for less than $14 USD, it is a great buy. They used to sell Berringer cab from the same region for $12, but on sale less than $10, when I see that, I buy several cases.

Sensodyne ?? Interesting.
Eyeinthesky · 56-60, F
@Teslin Its expensive.. you know when we get older, we tend to get sensitive tooth...🥴
Teslin · M
@Eyeinthesky Oh yes. I am older than you and use it LOL. I was thinking you were classifying it as a souvenir 😊
