Chemists/drugstores nowadays mainly sell stuff for cleaning (the house, yourself and kids, toilet paper ...), often also some organic food (drinks, snacks, no grocery or meat), diapers, batteries, some makeup,candles, some stationery... but there are very few of the old kind left (that also sold stuff like chemicals and others not pre-confectioned but by weight). cheers, Martin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
