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 And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise.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!!

WalMart has some HUGE Sales Happening NOW

Dwayne on one of the messages boards shared this news for those seeking a BIG BARGAIN

(note I am NOT a fan of WalMart - but I know quite a few people going through some financial challenges these days hence why I'm sharing this info.  At least WalMart in Costa Rica MUST pay ALL employees medical insurance!!!!]):

"WalMart has been selling all month their inventory. I am told their warehouse is full and trying to empty them for the shipments that come in a few weeks with their Christmas stuff.

I have bought Mirrors for 1,200 colons/$2.40-US (I wish I would have bought more at that price), Adolescents blue jeans for 1,000/$2, and other clothing, Towels for 1,000/$2 and yesterday area rug listed for 43,500 for 4,000 colons/$8 - no kidding.  A simple DVD player was now 5,000 colons/$10.

I am told this will continue till the end of the month.
