Ponchos in Sarria?

Hi, I leave in five days (newbie, Frances). This may sound like a silly question, but where exactly in Sarria can I buy a really good rain poncho? My local store is sold out of anything that will cover my pack. I am really short, barely 5 feet tall, so I need a very small size, but with proper sleeves (ie not a loose garbage-bag fit). I searched the threads and apparently there are sports equipment stores in Sarria, but can I please have an actual address where I can buy a poncho? I think I have everything else, thanks!

The shop Peregrinoteca, is a handy place in Sarria to buy outdoor gear. See their catalogue here.
This is a great shop located on the edge of the camino at:
Rúa Benigno Quiroga, 16, bajo,
27600 Sarria, Lugo, Spain

PS.. Their catalogue has 6 sturdy ponchos.

They are at the bottom of the BIG stairs, to the right, on the corner, IIRC.
 
Peregrinoteca is a very nice store with high quality merchandise. However, it’s useful to know there’s a cheap Chinese store more or less opposite on the other side of the main road. I bought a cheap, ultralight, nylon daypack for €6 to evenly distribute any food shopping I might do at the end of the day. I’ve found it a very useful little pack since returning home ! The daypacks in Peregrinoteca were much nicer, but started at €20 (&, being more substantial, would not have fulfilled the ongoing uses that the cheap one does…).

I’d guess they likely have ponchos…
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
