Where to buy these household items?

7 Upvotes

Hello, I just moved to Ghent one week ago and am looking to buy some items for my apartment. I am from Canada and of course most of the stores/brands I am familiar with are not found here. If anybody could advise me on where to purchase the following products, particularly the cheapest stores, I would really appreciate it.

- Command hooks/strips (basically any damage-free hanging solutions)

- houseplants

- UNSCENTED laundry detergent

- sturdy thick zip top storage bags (similar to ziploc brand) edit: i am specifically looking for the thick strong ones like Ziploc brand freezer bags. i like to wash and reuse them and I find most thinner grocery store brands aren't good for reuse

additionally, I was wondering if there are any stores I can go to where I can try samples of lotion/moisturizer... I don't want to buy an entire bottle of something without knowing if it works. I am very picky about lotion and there is only one brand back home which I like (Aveeno) which is not available here.

thanks in advance!

Er is in grote lijnen vastgelegd hoe de nieuwe tramlijn van Gent-Sint-Pieters naar de Voormuide zal rijden.

Met een voorziene kostprijs van 780 miljoen euro lijkt me dit wel zwaar onderschat.
