real vanilla, different kinds of chips for baking, drugstore brand make up (the kind you'd get in a Wal-Mart), decent shoes that aren't bedazzled or covered with crap, designer hair care products (Paul Mitchell, KMS, etc.), Cream of Wheat, Celestial Seasoning Teas, Packaged sauce/soup/gravy mixes, Altoids, sex toys (the Durex vibrating cock ring that tallg referred do just doesn't cut it, I'm afraid!), pre-cooked vacuum-packed bacon, Chinese hot mustard, over-the-counter medicines that I like from the States (Nyquil, Arthritis strength Tylenol, Excedrin Migraine, Visine allergy eye drops, etc.), BOOKS, cheap children's books and gifts, cheap but quality clothes, scrapbooking materials, birthday party supplies, anything holiday related, pet treats and toys and grooming/care supplies,...most you can order online if you have a credit card.
Every year it has gotten better here, but there is still a lot I can't find (consistently) in this country, which remains an annoyance.
