Title: So i want some jerky, a crate of dew...
Post by: Chicky on Wed 06/12/2006 17:52:23
Hello! I am asking a big big favor! And a lot of trust is involved!

I need one of you kind American ags'ers to do a little christmas food shopping for me. I've got a couple of friends (and myself) who love american food but can't really pay the price that importers charge us over here.

If someone would be kind enough to buy me these items, then i will pay for all the item prices plus whatever shipping costs. I'm hoping it'll be cheaper than the websites that offer these products.

I would like:

2x big bags of hot cheetos
a BIG amount of hot Beef jerky (over 1lb)
A 24 crate of mountain dew
And some fruity loops with the marsh mallows in :)

I don't know how easy it will be to send them over here, if the cost is too high then i guess there's no point but i really want to get my hands on these items!

I could pay via paypal.

Hope someone can help me!

cheers :)

I would like to help.

The only thing that may be hard for me to find are the HOT cheetos... but I'll see.

And any particular brand of Beef Jerky?

That'd be fab if you could help ScummBuddy!

If hot cheetos are a problem, the normal ones are fine :)

Also would you be able to get a price on the goods before you send them off? To make sure i can afford it ;)

cheers again!

Chicky, it's too bad that I will be stuck in the states this Christmas, (if you didn't know I'm a US soldier stationed in the UK)but I tell you what, it would probably be cheaper for me to get it on post and send it the royal mail, so keep me in mind for next year.

Bah, atleast ask for some good stuff, even though Mountain Dew is awesome. The other stuff not so much.

I have seen Pizza flavored Beef Jerky at a couple of gas stations around here. That stuff is great. I love beef jerky, but kills my jaw after chewing it for 10 minutes.

Y'see the jerky we get over here isn't chewy at all, nor is it hot :/

You could always make your own jerky. Of course, it'll be expensive either way. Jerky is about a 4:1 ration of meat to jerky.

Any chance we can smuggle a lot of them and put them into our own bottles, so that we can drink it.

So is anyone (scummy?) able to do this for me? I need a rough idea of the price before i commit myself.

Yes, sorry. I just got home from school for the day. I plan on going to the store tomorrow at noon and coming back with a price. Sorry for the delay.

You guys have Dr. Pepper in the U.K. right?

Good lord I hope so.   


I'm 21 but I'm curious exactly how much irony is involved if an 18 yr old brit bought me alcohol and shipped it to me in the U.S.?  Better yet, a 16 yr old from greece or Norway?    Do people do this sort of thing all the time.  I just never think about importing and regional availability.

16 from Norway? The age limit here is 18 for beer and 21 for liquors. Sure, it's not hard to get alcohol for a 16 yo but i just wondered about why you said 16 :P

And Dr. Pepper sucks...
