 American gifts for Russians  22nd Aug '07 4:23 PM

Does anybody know of some good things to bring from the US? It would be nice to have some things to give friends. I've heard maple syrup, peanutbutter, and whiskey...

Heh,

Where have all the Americans gone?! Hmm... maple syrup certainly isn't easy to get here. Peanut butter - ditto. Whisky is everywhere, and heavy to carry, but some half bottles of something 'unusual' would surely go down well!

I think maybe the best thing you could bring (if you can get them cheap) would be DVDs - they are cheap here but the quality is often poor and they don't always have English.

Try a PM to sky007 - he's back in Texas now but should have some good ideas
