Supplies in San Juan

Post by aircraft_electrician »

The Air Force has decided I need to spend 6 weeks in San Juan Puerto Rico...I know, it's a rough life, but since they've put me in a hotel on Isla Verde beach I'll find a way to deal with it.

Anyway, a web search hasn't been helpful at all, and I'd like to find a place to buy some nice shaving gear. I found some AOS stuff at the PX at Fort Buchanon, but that's all I've seen. Do you guys know of a place or 2 in the San Juan area that I can satisfy my AD?

Thanks,
Tom

Tom, I'm starting to get the idea that the only SJ, PR product availability report that gets posted here might be the one you post after your trip! I hope you find some hidden gems there, and that you have a pleasant and memorable tour of duty there.

I guess I'm just going to have to wander around the shopping areas of Old San Juan and see if I can find anything. So far I've been taking Squire's advice a bit too much, perhaps, and haven't had time for much else, aside from work, of course.
