--We will also have another visitor up from Cuenca tomorrow- Hugh Prather - 'The Flower Guy' - he ships flowers from
ECU to USA / CAN and Globally! 💐🌷🌹🥀🌺🌸
🤠(The show must go on! )👺

Back when i was young whipper snapper coming up on the south side of ATL (1970s - 'Lakewood') as a shoe shine boy in my Uncle Harry's Barber Shop the local beat cops 👮‍♂️carried on their Bat Utility Belt something called a 'SAP' - a thick leather strap with a large heavy piece of LEAD stitched into it. (pre, the non-lethal-tazers era) I have partnered with an outfit in the Cotacachi Leather Craft town to make a similar device designed into a fashionable Mens Coin purse, 🇪🇨'MADE IN ECUADOR'.🇪🇨


 ...with some practice, it's amazing what about $20 - $25 worth Sacagawea (carrying her baby) US Dollar coins in a zippered tooled leather 'Slap-Jack' can do when wielded and applied in the correct manner. With ECU911 being a cash based society, and more especially now a days we all have a need for some handy loose change on hand at all times.!

I offer and bring these custom made "Journeyman Jacks-Slaps'' to the weekly expats meet and greet lunch every Tuesday, i offer 2 different models, asking $25. & $30. each. - They can also be found on-line in the USA and muled down, but often times they are made of inferior material and lesser quality stitching made in CHINA. - https://www.desantisholster.com/inner-city-slicker/

 


 i also have 2 different models of the tactical stunn flashlights for $40 & $50. each, with some regular practice and familiarity they can also deliver a hi-voltage stunning surprise to an assailant, and just by the sound of the arcing (welder type of sound effects) zapper sends the feral dogs on their merry way, with no need to make physical contact.

 



-Newbies into this arena need Learn to practice practice practice daily with any sort of these non-lethal devices.-

-We can also talk more freely and openly f2f (not allowed on fb) about many other very practical non-lethal and legal systems and devices that can be easily and legally muled down. I have a couple of reliable and economical mules i can refer and rely on.---🐴

THU 09JUN22 - 'The Ecuador Report' - Womens personal feminine hygiene products - supply chain shortages-

 "I shop at our small nearby 9 aisles super mkt.: SuperMaxi in Tumbaco, Metro Quito Valleys (think regular small town walmart, passing by an even closer and much bigger MegaMaxi in Cumbaya with 14 aisles and triple the sq. ft, w, clothing and electronics dept. think like super-walmarts of Ecuador)

...about every 2 - 3 weeks for many years. Now and then the little woman has me stock up and make her personal purchases from time to time. This past THU 09JUN22 i noticed for the first time that there was a slight supply chain shortage for tampons. Don’t forget about these types of items if you are not prepared with alternativos.
Super y Mega maxi always stuffed their shelves with all products super full super tight, and have always kept it that way, 🤔 I also have noticed that our local 'fybeca' (the walgreens pharmacy of Ecuador) also has some gaps and some empty shelves, and prices creeping steadily up🤕 -
?Has anyone else noticed this sorts of things, or is it just me? 💸
