Uncle Raymond's Shop - J's Supermarket

Uncle Raymond owns a big supermarket in New Amsterdam.  The store is on the first floor, the storage room is on the second, and they live on the third.  The supermarket has a lot of the same things as U.S. stores plus a lot of local goods.  Uncle Raymond and Auntie Rita have three kids, Jason, Jermaine, and Julia.  Right now, only Uncle Raymond, Jason, and Melissa (Jason's wife) are living at home.  Jermaine and Julia are in New York going to college, and Auntie Rita is visiting them.  Auntie Rita should be coming home tomorrow.  Below are some photos of J's Supermarket.

For the Christmas season, they're selling ornaments, flowers, and other decorations in front of the store

The plantain chips and the Big Foot cheese snacks are really good



I am well acquainted with the cookie section

On of the workers, Amanda, saw me taking photos and asked to have her photo taken too
