Leroy Merlins
Yep, the home depot of Brasil. I have taken for granted the ability to redesign a room when I wanted. In Brasil you better think about what you are buying and buy it once. We went to Leroy Merlins to get stuff for our bathroom/shower room. A small plastic basket like 8 x 8 was $8.00. A matching toothbrush holder, soap holder for bar soap and toilet scrubber (second to the cheapest) totaled $70.00. Makes you think. I used to change my bathroom all of the time. All of the products are made in Brasil though. Lots of cheap but economy stimulating shit here. Next time I go to the U.S.A, I am bringing back some shit from China. :0... kind of funny? :)
