Gift For Friend In Trinidad

A friend of mine who lives in Trinidad sent me a gift from his area. I have tried to get him to tell me what I can send back that would be unusual or hard to get but he has not responded, and I have not pressed the matter for fear of insulting his gift.

So, I would be most grateful if some of you T&T residents would give me some suggestions for something that I can get here in the US that would be hard to get in T&T and would make a good gift. One thing that occurs to me that might be hard to find in T&T is real maple syrup. Any suggestions are much appreciated!

TIA,

Rev. Griz

How about money? No, I am not kidding, it is much easier to get it up there, but I am sure you were not thinking about that as a gift. Basically, anything the US has, we also have it here. There are a lot of importers and with the age of the internet it is not hard to source something. Maybe if you can tell us a little bit about your friend then it will make it easier... age / gender / hobbies, etc.

Offtopic but, Try looking at your intro thread for replies.

You can find anything from the US in supermarkets here, ANYTHING! It's amazing so I would not suggest the real maple syrup. You did not mention if your friend is a male or female, in this way I may be able to give some suggestions.

I made be too late on this - but not sure if you are looking for something made in America or what price range or if you are mailing it - but Electronic gadgets, cell phones, name brand shoes, light- as in not thick - hooded zip down the front jackets, beach bags, perfume (huge craze), clinique products, those chairs you sit on during a soccer game - huge this is used on the beach..., books - very expensive over there, picture frames...etc etc etc
