Shopping
Groceries - Do-it Super Center better prices, rewards, Ling and Sons more American brands, Super Foods Dutch imports. excellent selection for charcuterie board. horrible lines on Sat
If you decide to stay - price smart membership helps
Furniture/appliances/electronics- Crown, Ashley and other shops in that building
some local depending on taste, outdoor add casa and price smart specials.
Souvenirs- stall markets reminiscent of New Orleans French market including some barter, on route 1 - across from the i love aruba sign, or the street behind the pink casino.
Depending on where you are staying you could rent a car, take public transportation to see most of downtown, the tourist section of the island and even transfer to San Nicholas if you can catch a return. Take one of the 4 hour tours to go to Arikok and learn some of the islands history. And enjoy! Bon bini
