Got a huge favor to ask. Need two cases of Huggies diapers from Wal-mart or Costco. One case size 3 and one case size 6. If you would drop them off at
the food bank there will be someone there to pay you for them.
We aren't asking for them free. Its just that a case of diapers that cost $22 in the states cost $50 here.
If you think you can do this please post it on here so that others don't bring them too. The handicapped program can only afford two cases this time.

Don Julio - several pilots on BBP have said they are going to SF this weekend.
as for if they have room etc who knows.
you might be able to entice one with a free pickup at the airport to save them a $20 cab fare. www.bajabushpilots.com
you should join then post - it might also get you some RE biz as they allow free ads from members. in spite of my concern for infrastructure i still
like the beach development you have. back row lots certainly priced right.Donjulio - 5-26-2010 at 10:19 AM

I will be coming down Friday from El Centro and would be more than happy to bring 2 boxes of diapers.. To avoid any duplication please let me know
ASAP one way or another.. My plan is to buy them tomorrow since Costco does not open until 10:00am and I want to be on the road by then..Donjulio - 5-26-2010 at 10:09 PM
El Comadante Loco - please bring them. We would sure appreciate it. Thank you.Donjulio - 5-26-2010 at 10:22 PM
Bob and Susan - 85 diapers in San Felipe is around $45. 186 diapers in Costco is $49 Big difference. Its the amount in the case that makes the huge
difference.
And we have never been charged tax or duty on diapers.El Comadante Loco - 5-26-2010 at 11:00 PM

I dropped some clothes off at Don Julios
San Felipe Food Bank a week ago,
it will be a regular drop off place for me
in the future, clothes, etc. I did have a wheelchair
which I couldn't fit in, I suggest anyone
going to SF to make some sort of contribution,
it is located about 1 blk. before the
Arches as you come into SF,

I want to offer a special heart felt thanks to El Comadante Loco. Not only did he bring us two cases of diapers but he wouldn't accept the money for
them. Thank you very, very much.
I would have liked to have had more time to chat but I had the car loaded with kids and moms to go to our horse therapy program.
And Sancho, thank you very much also. It is greatly appreciated.

Contributing the diapers was a pleasure especially to know that they are needed, appreciated and put to good use.
I strongly encourage all Nomads traveling in the San Felipe area to support the Food Bank and all the great work they are doing for the community..
Your donations will be greatly appreciated..!!! Let's get behind the Food Bank..
