buying cleaning products for villa

What does everyone do - bring from home or buy when you get there?
Will need all the basics for cleaning plus loo roll, washing powder, softener etc...
Can you buy small packs of everything there and where would be the best place to get it?
We will probably do a food shop at walmart or publix - just essentials like water, juice, fruit and snacks as we will eat out most days.

Thanks.

I normally just buy it at either Walmart etc. Dollar tree is a good shop too.

I do bring sponges, cleaning cloths etc from home.

Another vote for Dollar Tree - you'll get all you need there - do a search on their website for the store closest to where you are staying - dollartree/custserv/c...StoreLocations

Yes I'd say Dollar Tree that's where I go apart from liquid laundry detergent as DH can only use Tide sensitive

Don't take loo roll from home as they use a different thickness. UK stuff can block the pipes, which are narrower than ours.

Dollar Tree for everything, as they are just a buck them come in compact quantities so less waste at end of trip (or less packing for home LOL)
