You got that right, electrical wires everywhere, flimsy rotting timber and tin construction-at least they seem to be strict about not smoking on the premises.


Super Cheap is a great place though and the best place to find western food in bulk including real whole bean coffee which is impossible to find on the north end of the island.
Good place to find anything in bulk but I do recommend visiting on cloudy days early in the day and only during the week otherwise it is just too hot, and crowded .
( And always keep in mind where the closest exit is )

The pharmacy dept is interesting too, lots of drugs to be had including antibiotics , lots from the 'caine family of painkillers, with no prescription needed .
