ABOUT THE LIVING LIFE IN COSTA RICA BLOG

I (Vicki Skinner - aka "THE Sarong Goddess") created this blog in 2007 to share DETAILED Finds•Lists•Info•Events•Experiences to help bring more EASE to people living in, visiting or thinking of moving to Costa Rica since DETAILS are NOT easy to find!
I’m NOT an expert (an "expert" 2 ME knows 101%-NOT me). I believe in sharin info•helping where I can! And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise. At least you have some basic info to get you started.
VOLUNTEER TO HELP:
Better yet - do you have extra time on your hands & looking for a volunteer project? Since this blog is a labor of love & RARELY does anyone share a donation (even though MANY have said how much it's helped them), I could REALLY use help updating info. Spanish speakers ESPECIALLY welcome since my VicLish can be somewhat limited at times!!

DONATE:

Bedding, Sheets, Comforters, Memory Foam Toppers - Where to find them in Costa Rica

Costa Rica is REALLY lacking in GOOD QUALITY &/or CUTE/COOL Bedding / Sheets. For WITHIN Costa Rica go to our site:
http://LivingLifeInCostaRica.blogspot.com/2008/07/better-quality-bedding-and-sheets-in.html

Another option is to buy things online/on the internet/web & have friends/family bring them to you. You can have them shipped to you & though the item could be cheap, they often are in oversized boxes hence there will often be a fee for such oversized boxes.


http://Overstock.com/bedding/29/store.html - MY FAV site!!!
MEMORY FOAM TOPPERS (a MUST in Costa Rica as MOST beds here are as hard as a rock!!) - I've found 2" Memory Foam Toppers WITH 1-2 Contour Pillows for $80 + & sometimes they have $1 or even FREE Shipping within the U.S.! (http://overstock.com/Home-Garden/Memory-Foam-2-inch-Mattress-Topper-Contour-Pillows/1862668/product.html)!!
SHEETS: Once I got 1,000 tc/thread count Egyptian Cotton Sheets for $170 - reg. $400!!!! (right now they have some 1,500 ct. for $170!!! Those must be BEYOND heavenly!!). I've found other 400+ tc sheets for as low as $25-$40 a set!!!
