Everything you've listed, I buy when I get there - sunscreen, insect repellant, after sun, bandaids, handwash, bandaids etc - it's all cheaper there, or the same price as home. I just head to Carrefour and do a big shop for my toiletries, mozzie coils and spray, drinks, nibbles, fruit etc.
The only things I find are a "must" from home are any medications.
The other thing I am taking from home this year is deodorant, since it seems pretty hard to find a decent women's deodorant over there. The best I've found is the rexona aimed at teenagers, which will do OK, but not as good as my own from home.
