York - Post Report Question and Answers
What household or grocery items do you wish you had shipped to post?
Nothing. I believe that you can easily decorate a full house nicely with the cost of shipping your furniture from abroad (rule doesn't apply if you are an antique/designer furniture lover). Besides, very few British living rooms will have enough space for an American sized sofa. I would leave most electronic equipment back as well as any appliances. My suggestion is to calculate the cost per kilo of sending something and if that is more than the cost of the item when new... leave it behind. - May 2006
