Fodor's Expert Review Discount Plaza

The local equivalent of Wal-Mart (though on a smaller scale) carries bathing suits, flip-flops, baseball caps, and the like. You can choose from a pretty good selection of toiletries if you have forgotten anything, as well as rum. There are also cheap Dominican souvenirs. You can also exchange money and buy phone cards here (as well as make long-distance calls in private booths).
