U.S. Virgin Islands - grocery shopping

Question
Hi,
We will be traveling to St. Thomas in August for our daughter's wedding on Megan's Bay.  We are renting a villa on Peterborg.  We will have our 3 month old granddaughter with us and we are wondering about places to buy diapers etc for the baby.  Five years ago we were there and we were taken to a small grocery store (mostly locals were shopping) we are wondering if there are any larger stores that may have a larger variety and possibly better prices. We will be renting a car.  

Any advice will be welcome, and appreciated.
Thanks, Karen

Answer
Hi Karen-

Although Peterborg is the Northside of the island, it would be well worth it for you to travel the 20 minutes or so to go to the larger grocery stores.  Your best bet will probably be Plaza Extra or K-Mart.  Both are located in the Tutu Park Mall.  Also within about a 5-10 minute drive from there is Cost-U-Less and Price Smart.  Those are larger "warehouse" type stores.

Let me know if I can be of further help

Take care-
Susie
