What to stock

Have your GROCERY STORE friend to visit a CAMP GROUND CAMP STORE to get an idea what is needed...

This google photo sort of really sums it up I think...

Metric Conversion Tables
I got surprised at an underpass posted in Meters and at a deli counter buying lunchmeat posted in grams. Also a good idea to swap some $US for $CN. Once you leave the border areas, you'll find small businesses that don't know the conversions and don't accept MC/VISA/AMEX cards.
Also, Tim Horton's is the Canadian Starbucks, and they're everywhere.

Toilet paper: Scotts or Angle soft
A few Dogbones (30-50 and 50-30 amp)
30 and 50 amp plugs (a couple of each)

Assorted 12 volt light bulbs and fuses.

Potable water hoses,, And Hose washers.
ONE or Two only RV-Water filters,, (The inline type) I like the larger diameter filters.

Though I do not normally use them "Black tank products" I suggest carrying only the waste digester types, NOTHING with Formaldehyde in it. (You do not wish to preserve the ...er.. stuff).

Picnic supplies (This is fairly common line of products in such a store)


On the RV specific stuff like Dog Bones, Hoses, filters and waste digester only carry a SMALL inventory at first. Plugs for example If he carries ONE 50 and one 30 amp.. Then when that one sells, odds are he will have time to re-stock before he sells another.

Toilet freshener, toilet paper, propane, sweatshirt (got colder than I thought last weekend), milk, eggs, chocolate :) - this is what I bought last week while camping.

What to stock?
Staples, such as milk, bread, eggs.
Delicaties, such as ice cream, candy bars, fruit/vegatables.
Things people forget or need to buy on the road.
Hardware, such as electrical adaptors, sewers connections.
Camping stuff, firewood, games

30 to 50 amp dog bones
Sewer hose
Potable-use hose
Hose washers
Coaxial cable with female ends
Automotive fuses
Fire starters
Marshmallow sticks
Sewer doughnuts
Various insect repellents
1lb propane bottles

There's so much more, but I have to go to work.
