newmexicoNita Posted November 9, 2006 #1 Share Posted November 9, 2006 We are down to our last couple of weeks before we cruise the canal. What are the good bargains in Costa Rica? Of course we know about coffee, but not of anything else. Nita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edste Posted November 9, 2006 #2 Share Posted November 9, 2006 We bought some beautiful pieces made of wood when we were in Costa Rica. They were inexpensive but very pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robtulipe Posted November 10, 2006 #4 Share Posted November 10, 2006 We were in Jaco last Jan. and bought lots of locally produced and well made clothes ( shorts, shirts, hats, swim suits) at very low cost. Also wooden products such as folding child's rocking chair, hammocks and tree swings. Most pottery sold on the street is made in Nicaragua but is pretty and cheap.

Thoth Posted December 5, 2006 #5 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I found the coffee good as well as a inlaid wooden box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEL67 Posted December 7, 2006 #6 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I bought mostly wooden items - a salad bowl set and puzzle boxes (as children's gifts.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newmexicoNita Posted December 12, 2006 Author #7 Share Posted December 12, 2006 There is an open market (actually not really open) at the dock. They have wonderful wooden items, coffee and the basic fun souveniors. Other than that there really isn't much shopping. NMNita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
