Depends on incremental cost of shipping stuff over and whose pocket it's to come out of (company shipping a container?). Anyway, here are some ideas:


Six months' supply of Raisins First cookies from President's Choice (costs 3 to 4 times as much in HK, specially when on sale in Loblaws). Fruits to Go if you have kids. Right Guard spray (they disappeared from HK for some reason). Gilette's gels too here are at about 3-4 times your price. Shaving stuff (go Costco). H2O, Fruits & Passion. Vitamins, fish oil capsules, supplements, etc from Costco or GNC.

Home safe (with battery-powered locks) - we saw great deals two summers ago at Costco but too heavy for plane (ok for plane), so we didn't bite.


Clothes, shoes - only if large sizes are a consideration. I'd be wary of suggesting more - all depends on your shipping situation, family members, personal tastes, housing/storage space in HK. PM if you wish to discuss offline.
