Looks like you need to sell imported Fanta, Irn-Bru and Dr. Pepper in those nationwide stores of yours too!

Why stop at the American Lottery, we can sell our national lottery tickets, and scratch cards and all sorts...

....bloody hell, with the business expanding like this we'd better get some kind of business plan together , and quickly too before some thieving git nicks our idea.

what about m&ms, and peanut m&ms? my mom loves those. If they aren't available in NZ we can import those, and make a killing just off the money from my mom. :icon_mrgreen:

Biscuit M&Ms? Never heard of them. Sounds like the middle has biscuit/cookie, n'est pas?

How's about hot sauce, e.g. Tabasco? We may need to pack a case of it otherwise. When/if we do, we'll be sure to take requests for other goodies.

One thing we found in NZ in 2001, which we can't find in the US, are Campbell's pumpkin soup and some Asian flavors. They were oh so yummy. Unfortunately we had trouble finding them in 2004, or we would have packed a few cans in our return luggage.

No doubts about the Kiwi wine, though.

They are called M&M Crunch, and come in a blue packet.

There are plenty of sauces available, but not having ever looked for Tobasco sauce, I cant say for sure it exists. I would imagine it does though, and i'll look out for it next time we go to a shop!
