I LOVE this! I love these stores. And the prices are always very reasonable on their stuff. Great news!

Probably going to be choppy all over the world until this is sorted out. I think the USA might have underestimated Iran.

Same thing happened to my cousin. The phantom QR code leading to a digital dead end is peak Argentine bureaucracy! Very few things work as intended here. I was told The City recently pushed a major update to make the Certificado de Domicilio a "100% online" process that can supposedly be done...

These are nosebleed seats and it's balcony standing but they are $165 each plus fees. https://www.stubhub.com/swan-lake-buenos-aires-tickets-3-11-2026/event/160573812/?backUrl=%2Fteatro-colon-tickets%2Fvenue%2F137015744%2F<=33.004&lg=-117.07&quantity=2

That does not sound like it can be true on groceries. For 4 people only $517 usd per month? My husband and I spend more than that for the two of us. We spend much more than that dining out to eat. I wonder why he didn't include that for as detailed of a budget. Then claims $62 on...

The DNM (Dirección Nacional de Migraciones) in Argentina does keep a centralized digital database. Because your passport and biometrics were taken during your residency attempt and your consular visit, your previous "not a tourist" flag will almost certainly pop up on the immigration officer's...

I think it is good they are taking back some of these buildings. I talked to one of my husband's cousin that waited 7 years to get his building back. He bought it and then many families moved in and he couldn't get them out. Finally he got them out a few months ago. I wondered what happened...

It is sad to see homelessness increase. Many have mental illnesses. Some very obscene and rude. Many times they are talking to themselves. One time a mentally woman burned another woman's mattress that set down her mattress near her. It is difficult and the city should step in and remove...

That place looks insane. My parents and relatives are coming in December. Once they get their tickets I am going to recommend your place @earlyretirement. Fantastic job.

I thought it would actually be worse.

Yes, unfortunately I’ve had several similar experiences, and it has left me deeply concerned about the reliability of the medical system here in Argentina. I say this carefully, but if you have the option, you may want to consider receiving treatment in the USA if you have coverage there. I...

Good luck. I went through this process and the process was slow and painful even for someone that had no arrest record. There is a Whatsapp group that I was a part of. It may be helpful and probably others have been in your situation. I'm not sure about multiple arrests but I remember a few...

Well the problem the government will have now is all their numbers will be questioned. If you can't count on #s of what the government is putting out it isn't good. Now people are coming out saying the poverty numbers are fake too and poverty rates went up. CEDEF just came out with a report...

Get these. I just bought this one for my husband. He is also size 11. The price came down on them. 199,000 pesos or $137 dollars. They do 6 interest free payments if times are tight. Anything Merrell is very good. If you walk all over the city they are comfortable and last a long time. That...

Grimoldi has great shoes. Love that store. Great suggestion. Very true. Good friends are hard to find. Sounds like you have a good sponsor. Might they help you with a trip to Grimoldi? Less than 10 blocks from where you live. https://maps.app.goo.gl/ivL35mwVadTaYRUQA
