| From groceries and clothing, to potions ingredients, brooms, and other magical items, all a witch or wizard's needs can be supplied. Here are a few examples: | |||
|
Some very peculiar flowers in Bloomheister Florist.  |
Curious tableware in the Crate & Cauldron.  |

Magical creatures of all sorts can be purchased in the Mercado.
Since the enactment of the Pettigrew Law, every animal sold in
the Mercado receives a thorough inspection and is certified by
the Ministry of Magic not to be an animagus in hiding. Pictured: (Top left) A common waterfowl. These are often allowed free range on the Rio Diagonal. (Top right) A Texas horned lizard, sometimes called a "horny toad" or "horned frog." Note: Contrary to published reports, horned lizards are not used in potions of any type, due to their endangered status. (Near left) A young blast-ended skrewt. It is unclear to this correspondent why anyone would want these. |

This unusual object appears to be a pickled human brain, but
is in fact the fruit of the North American braintree (Arboreus
cerebellumus). It is used in potions to temporarily boost a witch's or wizard's intelligence, but it requires a prescription and is not sold to anyone underage (much to the dismay of wizarding school students during O.W.L.s). This fine example was displayed at Phernando's Pharmacy in the Mercado area. |
