That sounds exactly like what we have in the US, and what I found to be true in Japan as well. Most stores and pharmacies have pullups, very few drug or medical stores have low to mid grade tab diapers, and you have to order premium diapers online. |

In Canada on the west coast best place to buy diapers is Babykins http://www.babykins.com. They are in Richmond BC near Vancouver. Jenny is very helpful and understanding. |

Hi Fred, I agree with you. One of the biggest downsides of babykins is that shipments to Europe takes 6 to 8 weeks, which is beyond reasonable I would say. I'm sure if the shipment would be reduced to two weeks they would improve their business in Europe significantly. Bob |

Is it the fault of Babykins or is it the fault of the Canadian Mail Service? I opt for the reality that the Canadian Mail Service can be agonizingly slow. This is from actual experience. I have dealt with babykins since 1995. |

Howdy Tewi I have tripled the size limits, now you should have no problem in the future. Schoppy Tewi wrote: I tried to add photos. I got the message: Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached. What to do? What to say? I tried again. Same message. |

I find this hard to believe. In Dubai, see my post above about product availability in Dubai, THE FIRST, the VERY FIRST PHARMACY I went into had products. That was the good news. The not so good news was the product available was average. Not superior. Not horrible. Down the center of the road average. I am now in The Sultanate of Oman. I am in Muscat, the capital city of The Sultanate of Oman. How many of you I wonder have ever heard of Muscat, Oman? THE FIRST, THE VERY FIRST PHARMACY I went into here in Muscat, Oman, had products. That is the good news. Here is the WONDERFUL NEWS. They carry Molicare products. Molicare products are among the best-of-the-very-best (in my humble opinion of course). I purchased one bag of 14 size medium briefs. They cost, in U.S. Dollars, $19.50. The store manager gave me a 10% discount. Want another surprise? They were on view in the window of the store. I did not even have to go inside to see IF they had products. Here are a few photos. AMAZING! ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY AMAZING! In my opinion of course.

Yeah, that's just amazing. You'll never see that in the US. No pharmacy I've ever seen will stock but the worst products in very limited quantities these days. You've even lucky to find the rare medical supply store that carries middle of the road products, and those are always hidden off to some side or back isle somewhere. I might have to go visit there too some day, just for this kind of convenience. Plus the subway and starbucks next door. Lol. |

I am sitting in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). I am in a city named Ras Al Khaimah located at the extreme Northeast corner of the UAE. The below photos tell a tale. Amazing.
