  • Srongsranos (the mall) -Tafunsak, good for basic supplies but a bit ofa trek - 30 minutes on bicycle
  • Micks - In Santrek, a bit of a trek from the anchorage but well worth it. They have all sorts there
  • Japenese Farm - 20 minutes from Lelu (turn right at the bridge after the Bank of FSM), good for fresh vegetables what ever they have at the time and very cheap. best time is early in the morning or sunday

Loads of mama and papa shops that sell chips, sodas, soap powder, spam, tuna fish etc......
