Mmmmm, pocky! My friend buys it, I'll ask her where she gets it from.
Do you have a Meijer up where you live? If you do look there in the international foods section. Heck with going online! :p
No...no where here sells pockyQuote:

EDIT:
Ok Renos said there is a store right by his house that sells it for 2.00/pack of 20.
I'm at his house every wed evening. Send the $, tell me what you want & I'll ship if for whatever it ships for. I'll pack the loose change in the parcel & you'll have oh so yummy Pocky!!
I wont be on the island this year, Hopefully next year. If so, I can buy as much as you want & pack it in my suitcase :D
I'm not sure where you're located, but theres an Asian supermarket chain called T&T that carries it.
Also, check out any asian grocery stores in your area if you have them -- or in the downtown area.
I work in a mainly asian area (Markham for anyone who knows the Toronto area well enough), and im about a block north of the T&T -- same as Kings offer, i'd be more than happy to get whatever you wanted from there, box and ship to you, likely for less than $20, especially since its in Canada. Feel free to PM me if you like :)
We can get it anywhere down here... Even Walmart has it so I don't know what to tell you :(
I love Pocky :) I got hooked on it when I lived in Japan

Theres not a whole lot of stores on the island. The closest city that "might" have anything like that would be Halifax/or/Dartmouth, but thats one heck of a drive!
I don't think there is anything that Toronto doesn't sell, cause there are sooooo many cultures here, its great!!! Kinda why I stayed here
What in the world is pocky??
Its a chocolate covered biscuit stick, originally from JapanQuote:

Its kinda like a thin 6" pretzel stick (no salt), coated in yogert (dryed, like icing)... its not too sweet, which makes it really good!!Quote:

no sorry.. but I bank with CIBC... If you send the money in 20.00s I can take it out of the atm at work the second its in my account. & what ever change is left over, I'll put inside the parcel... the change will be taped up, cause if it makes noise, someone will steal it & thats not cool.Quote:
