Question about grocery/beer stores

[jdmutt]

First trip to Aruba and I will be arriving on a Sunday around 3:30 PM. I would like to pick up some cans of Balashi and Amstel Bright and some snacks. I've heard a lot about both beers so I would like to buy some to tote on the beach. I was just curious if there are any grocery stores open this late on Sunday or if maybe the small store in the Bucuti (which is where we are staying) would have these things, reasonably priced of course . If not I assume I will have to wait until Monday and go back out and pick them up. Thank you very much in advance for your help. Can't wait to be loungin' on the beach with a cold one in hand .

By the Sasaki Round (close to Morgan's Island-the waterpark, just past Divi) there is a Texaco. Directly across from the entrance to Texaco there is a little store that is open late. It's a bit more expense than the supermarket - but much cheaper than the store in the highrise area. The cooler is always well stocked with cold beer!! Enjoy

JDMutt - have a safe flight - like the other posts, you'll be OK as even though the major mkts will be closed, there are plenty of convenience types that surely will tide you over 'til Monday. Enjoy

Cheng's Market is open 'till 9 pm on Sundays. Make the 1st right at the traffic light after the roundabout (circle) where Texaco is. On the left you will see the sign for Key Largo Casino (now closed) and The Aruban Resort.
