And same from me... Welcome to the forum and you might also find what you are looking for at Coop, Migros, Manor, etc. or you can post and [WANTED] linens in geneva here in the forums... you never know  | | | | | Hi Puhutes,

I think some of our vetrans are getting a little cranky from lack of animal meat parts in the Swiss diet... I've only been here since mid-February so I will probably be joining them soon as well... Mmmmm steak |

EF is not here to spoon-feed you, you have to have a certain degree on initiative too...
on a separate note, turning down a notch the sarcasm knob will get you further...

You live in Geneva. Stop googling things. Get off the computer, put on some shoes and walk the streets in expanding concentric circles until you find the shop of your requirements. Oh, and by doing this you'll find everything else you need too. Except brown sugar. | Quote: | |  | | | i am telling you man cause you are veteran (well done) and i already search but no posts around.. you said that they are a lot, so i just asked you to show me that posts ...or maybe you didnt find them too? | | | | | | | The following 6 users would like to thank for this useful post: | |

When I first arrived I had to look for a padlock for my son's locker at school and I hadn't a clue where to start.
Confuser, the easiest places, without a car, are probably Coop City in Bel Air and Manor department store near Cornivan station (they have loads of household things in the basement). Also MParc in Carouge if that is handy for you (I find it more difficult because of the buses I need to take to get there).
You're welcome to PM me if you need any help.

Really, how difficult is it to go into town and buy some bedding?

Are we going to discuss what he didn't ask for now? Like vanilla extract and sarcastic replies?
Point being - though I thought it was obvious - that when you first arrive and need things in a hurry, it's not as easy to find things here as you might think. Everything is easy when you've been here a while.

I'm all for helping genuine enquiries, but this request is just downright lazy.
Next the OP will be asking us to find milk and eggs...
