When you move to a new country its not very hard to find the supermarket of the drugstore. What is most hard to find are the specialty shops, unusual items or services that you just take for granted at home.
I was looking for a special type of scissors for cutting my hair and I was told to go to Afilado No.6 - a shop on the very end of Soriano (Plaza Independencia end). I went there to find they sold the most interesting collection of things.
They seem like an outlet store for a beautician - they sell hairdryers, hairbrushes, waxing supplies, some cosmetics, nailcare things etc.
However I thought it might interest some that they sell good knife collections, a wide array of quality scissors and best of all they offer a sharpening service for a good price!
They have a website (although it is very basic) so you can see what they offer:

For the nonspellers: Urugauy and Monte Video is Montevideo (monte-vid-day-o), real estate agents are "Inmobiliaria", and of course Uruguay is not spelled Uraguay. 5182
