Hiya,
I will be going to india for the 1st time in 3 1/2 years. All you Cd's who have made trips to india, could you advise what kind of goodies you took from Canada to India, basically something that may nto be available in India although everythign is available in india. the bottom line is one has to take some goodies irrespective.
ur suggestions, would be of great help.

1. Chocolates(Not Kit-Kat/Cadbury/Nestle etc.) Something from Laura Secord(did I get the name right?) perhaps.
2. Johnny Walker scotch - above Red Label / Single Malt -Glenfidich
3. Genuine leather apparel
4. Canadian Maple Syrup
5. T-Shirts/caps/duffel bag/carry ons with Canadian logo/flag
And...ummmm yes!
One pretty Canadian woman if you can manage

I once made a mistake, but I was wrong about it.
I just visited India last month (after 7 years). For the most part I carried chocolates and perfumes.
Chocolates - If you're in Toronto, there's an outlet on Birchmount, just north of Lawrence (I don't have the exact address). There's a sign, right on the road. This place is open on Thu & Fri 9.30 to 4.30 only. Good, brandname and cheap chocolates. I've seem the same brands at Walmart recently.
Perfumes - There's a wholesaler at Steeles/Torbram, SE corner - AG Liquidators, very reasonably priced. U don;t have to buy in wholesale.
Other than that, T-shirts, I picked them up at the roots sale at CNE in the spring, good and cheap t-shirts.
Also carried some crystalware serving dishes etc, picked up at that place.... just can't remember the name. They have a sale once a year in Sep/oct timeframe. It's at Lawrence & Railside, just west of Victoria Park.
Hope that helps
