I was in the Park and Save back on August. While they do have a fair enventory of essentials, I would call it more like a convenience store than a provisioning grocer. In my 2 months on island I did my heavy shopping at the Riteway in Pasea and One Mart a few blocks further on.
However, since then Bobby's at the round-a-bout in town has been completely remodeled and remerchandised and I am hearing some good reports.

CottageGirl said: For water, we provision at minimum 1/2 gallon per person per day. Always pick up a few more gallons along the way. As for "what to bring and how much" really depends on your eating & drinking habits - how much you eat on the boat vs how much you eat on shore, etc. I'm always a bit embarassed by our liquor provisioning order at the start of a trip ... and then we end up picking up a few bottles along the way. I tell my crew that it's a "no judgment zone" when ordering You make me feel better. I keep looking at the booze portion of our order thinking, is that really right? 6 grown ups, 14 days, yep.

My benchmark for booze provisioning was from a Voyage cat with 6 or 8 people...7,000.00 for 2 weeks. You know who you are Grey Goose-2 cases Moet Champaign-2 cases Bud Light-8 cases 2 cases of wine and more....
