More cool stuff at Carrefour...including great gift ideas!


For a limited time only (I think), Carrefour is selling the Taiwan edition of Monopoly. This is a great gift idea for anyone who has ever lived in Taiwan. I looked into buying this online a couple of years ago, and it was over $30 (U.S.) at that time. But you can buy it at Carrefour for about NT$700.


I think I'll be buying a few of these for Christmas gifts!

You can also find some fun Play-Doh sets that will probably sell out rather quickly.




Another cool item is the fabric softener sheets, which I've only seen so far at Costco or import stores. The Gain sheets are about NT$100/ box. And they smell good.

Anyone want an Indiana Jones Mr. Potato Head? This is also a fun gift!

And last but not least, you can buy sweet-smelling Bodycology lotions and bath gels for a great price.

Hurry and get to Carrefour before the "American" sale ends!


Many of the products that are at the DaZhi Carrefour are located on the THIRD floor, not the second floor. You can find everything from honey mustard pretzels to dark chocolate Hershey's kisses to chocolate-drizzled marshmallows. And everything is on sale.

You can find several kinds of pancake syrup, including the "lite" version, which has less calories per serving.

And O Organics tortilla chips are on sale for NT$95/ bag.

You can also find some "Eating Right" products including soups, canned fruit, and breakfast bars.

And finally, nothing says "American" like Hamburger Helper!
