I've traveled to many places over the years, including Disney. Every trip, there's always someone who asks me to buy them something while there and they'll pay me for it when I return. Its usually something akward to pack or difficult to shop for. We went to Russia 5 years ago and someone wanted me to pick her up a samovar (Russian tea pot). Those are quite large and heavy. I had several people ask me to bring them leather purses from Mexico, woven blankets from Brazil, china from England. Our last trip to Hawaii I had 2 people ask me to bring them an Aloha shirt and a Hawaiian dress. Shopping for clothes for others is a difficult task if you're not sure of their size, tastes, etc. They think if they just pay you for the item when you return its not putting you out. Well, just the inconvenience of tracking down such and such an item can be more than they realize. Not to mention how am I supposed to get it back? There's only so much room in my suitcase, and the airlines have strict weight limits now. Maybe I don't want to spend a part of my vacation running around looking for items for other people. The times I have done so I had the impression they didn't really expect me to ask them to pay for it and acted put out when I produced a receipt. I had one "friend" say that it wasn't what she wanted so she didn't feel she should have to pay for it. I'm not running an import business! With the advent of internet shopping, I just tell my "friends" they can find such and such an item on an internet site and they should shop for themselves. That way they can get what they want and I'm not burdened with doing someone else's shopping. Has anyone else had people expect them to be a world shopper for them?
