When purchasing products for Pesach from stores that sell Chametzdik items, how careful should one be about wiping off the Pesach items before putting them on your Pesach countertops, etc.? Example: I bought some bottled water from a regular supermarket. They were put into a shopping cart, then on the usually-slightly-dirty belt, then put into bags. Should one wipe them down with a dry paper towel before them entering the Pesach kitchen? Spray them with a cleaner? What about K-P unopened wine that you own that's been out all year in your dining room. Can you just wipe it with a dry paper towel and put it on the seder table? My FFB chavrusah says "of course', so I don't know if I am just being B.T. by worrying about it. Thanks! [Agudah member too embarassed to ask his posek]

Dear Rabbi, My name is Cerian and i come from Wales. I am currently styding A level Judaism!! We were discussing your day of rest, Shabbat, and were wondering what would happen if you were put in certain situations, for example, if there was a fire at your neighbour's (Who are not Jewish) and they weren’t at home and if it was not a life threatening situation what would you do? would you use the phone?? Hope I here from you soon as it is a very important part of my course!! Thank You Cerian xx
