What did you wish you brought with you (or brought more of) when you moved to your island?

.My bicycle that is stored on the mainland is way better than the 1 I am riding now. I wish I'd taken AT&T up on the iphone offer instead of bringing my laptop, & the 1st few weeks I really missed my ant proof tuppers. Most everything is gettable online or locally, but it does take some time to learn where to shop so you don't get hosed.

drugstore.com is great. Orders over $35 ship free to the VI. I buy Band-Aids from them. The ones we use (daily....that's another story) are over $6.00 at Kmart here. They are less than $3.00 from drugstore.com. Usually, I can just suck it up and pay whatever the higher price is, but geez....over 100% more? That's outrageous. I don't know if it's all Band-Aids or just the ones we use.
