Cheap Dollar - Buy in USA

My parents would always return from US with 14 suitcases loaded with clothes, shoes, toys, tuna, plastic bags, etc. The zionist reality did not include purchasing low quality expensive stuff in Israel.

While I like a nice trip to the Galleria as much as the next woman - in the past few years buying in the US lost most of its financial benefit. (Losing 2 suitcases on Delta - never to be found, did not help much) .

Now that the NIS/$ exchange rate is so low - it really pays to buy in the states. Todays case in point - crocs

80 NIS ($22) at Nordstroms vs. 200 NIS at LaMitayel

When a commodity product, like crocs cost 2.5x in Israel - take your business elsewhere and tell them I sent you.
