Where to Find: Hodgepodge of Items in Geneva...

Sep 16, 08 11:29

Below is a list of things I am trying to find. I would prefer reccomendations close to centre-ville but if going out into the suburbs on public transportation affords better prices or selection, I am open to that.

Any insight would be appreciated!

- Pull-Up bar that can mount inside a doorway
- "Perfect Push-up" or similiar device
- Nike or New Balance Running Shoes (not for fashion, but for running/training)
- Bracket to mount hand-held shower head up high in shower using screws
- Is there a gym, like Silhoutte, that opens early (5:30AM; 6:00AM) in near Gare Cornavin?
- Light bulb for ikea lamp other than ikea
- Broom and dustbin to sweep hardwood floor
- Sunglasses lens cleaner and cloth

Thanks again for sharing feedback.

Coop has the broom and stuff, including a variant specifically for hardwood floors.

unfortunately there's no such thing as a onestop shop, so....

the main Manor store for your shoes; plus there are several shoe stores around manor as well.

any optical store should have glass cleaners.

alternatively go to Balexert by bus and check out carrefour which should certainly have the bathroom / household items.

Did you find that Pull-up thing?

I was wondering before if something like that existed.

If you found it, maybe tell us where?

Rainer_D,

I found one at Manor in the sports section, but it looked pretty weak and hokey. It was an expanding bar that should be pressed against a doorway; i doubt ti could support a normal person's weight.

They did have some push up grips which I bought and some other decent sports equipment.

Let me know if you find a good one elsewhere.
