I am looking to pick up some 12V deep cycle "no-maintenance" (AGM) marine batteries. Apparently Pricesmart only sells flooded cell marine bats (or was I misinformed?).

I'd also like to buy one of these new higher-end "smart" battery chargers.}

Does anyone a place that sells them here?

I'd be much obliged to anyone who can help me out here.

There are a lot of people, myself included, who would like to avoid GMO food. The labeling wars continue at the state level in the US but that is not going to fix things in Nicaragua. That got me wondering if there was a cheap/easy way to detect GMOs.

I am not talking about looking for trace quantities of anything. I am thinking that if you could easily test that quintal of corn or soybeans you have, it would be a good thing.

I thought I would be smart and go ahead and exchange $500 US while I was still here ahead of my trip so I wouldn't have to worry about. I called Wells Fargo and told them that I wanted 500 worth of Cordobas and they said they would call when it was in. So today they called and I headed right down there to exchange my money. My first red flag was when the lady comes walking back to the front with a huge bundle of cash. The reason was because they had received two 500's, one 200, one 100 bill, and the remainder 50's, 20's, and 10's.

Any ladies out there who can recommend a good hairstylist in Granada? I'm looking for a salon that uses professional products and a stylist who can do precision cuts and quality color.

While I'm on the topic is there any where in Granada that sells professional shampoo, conditioner and other hair products? I've seen products in Managua at the mall, but just wonder what's available here in Granada.

Thanks for your help!

Or will it be closed for Easter Sunday????

Howdy! I have a 2011 Honda CRV that I brought to Nica from the USA and it requires 0w20 motor oil and yeppers I am unable to locate any! Yes I have contacted the Honda dealership in MGA and the toyota, and the KIA and have stopped at a few oil places and even PriceSmart, but no 0W20 motor oil!!! The Honda place here stated they use 10W30 but I think thats too thick! I called up the parts guy (yes not an expert) from the place where I purchased the CRV and he thinks the 10w30 is too thick as well.

Anyone have any sugestions on where I can buy or order it???

Thanks, Scott

Hi everyone.

I'm a drummer and would bring my drums with me when I make the move. I've been looking all over the net and on instrument manufacturer sites and never see any listings for distributors/retailers in Nicaragua, just Costa Rica and occasionally Honduras. Anyone know of anywhere in the country that I can pick up drums, cymbals, and those kinds of items?

Good morning. We reside in the Santo Domingo area, any clue on where I can go and get the propane tank filled. I bought it at Price Smart. I stopped at a few gas stations, but no luck. Any suggestions would be super. Thanks

I have been e-chatting with Laura-Jane (The Rawtarian) about eating raw. She's in Canada and manages to eat raw so we should be able to do it here. I have reviewed her shopping lists and while we may get stuck eating fresh pineapple, papaya and mango instead of some of the fruit on her list, the biggest issue seems to be her list of nuts.

I am looking for what is a typical trailer roof vent. An example can be found here. My guess is that they are available in Nicaragua but I have no clue where nor even what kind of store might have them. Is there a trailer supply place somewhere?

Anyone know which bank here in Nicaragua deals/works with Banco Nacional de Costa Rica?

Thanks Bobby
