Suggested shopping list for items other than food Our hope is that while you’re on the ministry base with us in Mexico, you feel at home. Our mindset is that, "Mi casa es tu casa" (My house is your house). We don't operate like a hotel service, we basically loan you the base during your time here. Taking this in mind, here's a suggested shopping list for your time while in Mexico. It is best to purchase main items in the States before crossing the border (costs are less and selection is better). Please consult the website for a recommended shopping center close to the border. http://www.gomissionstomexico.com/food4lessshopping.html. Items like fruit, bread, and milk can be purchased locally if you wish.
Cleaning Items Several liquid hand soaps (anti-bacterial). Small bottle dish washing liquid Couple scrubber pads for pots and pans
Paper & Plastic Items for meals prepared at the mission base Small bathroom trash bags (10 gallon) Large trash bags (40 gallon) Paper towels for kitchen and bathrooms Toilet Paper Hand Soap Napkins Paper plates (we recommend using paper plates, bowls, cups & etc. for eating, this cuts down on work & time) Paper bowls Paper cups Plastic eating utensils Baby wipes for cleaning hands after V.B.S. and etc. (put in vans)
