Glad all went well for you.
If you have a car it's worth driving into Marigot to Super U in the Howell Shopping Center (main road out of town just past athletic field on right) lowest prices give 1 to euro to dollar and food is exceptional fresh, abundant. Only downside is if you buy boxed, packaged items like instant rice the directions are in French.
We were on island 2 weeks. 1st week shopped Grand Marche $92. On 2nd week bought basically the same items (bread, milk, cheese, eggs, ice cream, water, roti chicken, lettuce, tomato, salad dressing, tiny jar of mayo, cookies, green beans, yogurt, wine, rum, ting. ) minus Ting but plus extras and spent $52. Saw a rack of lamb for $12 but I don't cook big meals on vacation---especially when in SXM because of the many great restaurants.
