Q: Can you find tonic in Carrefour in Beijing?

I got offered a bottle of gin and I aim to put it to good use, but I'm not entirely sure where to find Tonic, since I never really paid much attention for it. I'm quite far away from Sanlitun, so I don't feel like trekking out there to get it. Anyone know where else I might find some?

Some of the bigger stores have it, though the quality is not the best. I too love a good G & T and make do with "Watson's Tonic". Not the best, but in my book it is better than nothing.

I don't often see tonic in Carrefour, but most BHGs have Watson's and Schweppes tonic for 3.90 RMB/can.

Jenny Lou's, or any big supermarket.

There are so many Carrefour in Beijing, it would help if you told us approximately where you live (Far from sanlitun isn't really accurate)

You can get tonic all over the place. Watsons in a yellow can. You don't need to go to carrefour (unless it's closer)

Answer of the DayMORE >>
A: Your potential employer is right! Demand for Medical exam before
A:Your potential employer is right! Demand for Medical exam before granting Z visa is to make sure, you won't be entering China in any abnormal and harmful to others condition.Few days after your arrival to China, you'll be required to complete another ME ... If ME in China will be OK, you'll get a Residence permit stamp into your book some 10-days afterwards. Imagine, you're an employer, who can sponsor my entry and work in China, but after my arrival to China, it would be found I carry some sickness, which would prevent Chinese .gov to issue a Residence permit. Rule is: Z visa should be converted into Residence permit in 30-days after arrival to China.    So, my advice is:"Complete ME in your home country and forward medical results to your employer".Z visa grant will follow shortly afterwards. Employer is not wrong at their demand for the pre-arrival ME from your home country hospital.   -- icnif77
