Our own version of Home Depot and Walmart
There are a number of small shops like this one all over in Nasca. It's amazing what they can cram into so small a space. We did find a Home Depot in Ica to get weather stripping to go on the bottom of our doors so the dirt doesn't blow into the house so much. I had made one from sewing plastic bags together and stuffing them with other plastic bas to make a tube, but the real ones work much better.
Rauolito's is our Supermarcado. We can find tuna fish, peaches, mushrooms, and fruit cocktail in cans. Our milk has the date of July when it expires and comes in a box(not refrigerated). We get mayo in a bag that is also not refrigerated.
Fruit stands like these are on the streets and also all kinds of juice, food(which we don't eat or drink from the street) and clothing stands.

I've always been impressed with your inventiveness but you are rising to new heights with the weatherstripping!
And your Mall shopping!
