Hot Sale 2025: Day 1 Recap (Online Mega Sale)

vitamin supplements
i've been lucky enough to find 90% of what i need here on MercadoLibre...need me to find you a good deal on certain minerals/multivitamins? even Amazon won't ship my favorite brand Alive! here; must be some weird SENASA rules that need to be chainsawed

I can't stomach paying the price for jeans and shoes here!
i really hope LLA just drops the import fees to zero. this country would explode in prosperity

memory card?
i have some microSD ones for cameras, and i'm not using a couple, not sure what size/style you need (i'm also in Mendoza, so prolly won't help).

pack an extra check in
good guy Earlyretirement 🙂 those checked bags can be like 100 bucks sometimes after all the totals get added!

i love this thread because it's such an encapsulation of Argentines and Peronists:

1. "i am poor, we are struggling to live" - from the porteña with the CheGuevara icon:
It is very difficult for those of us that earn pesos. Life is expensive for us. My family help me with my medical insurance each month now. I cant afford it my own.


2. two seconds later: "my iPhone broke and a need a new one" 🤣 and a Macbook Air
Maybe you two can each bring one. If you can bring me a MacBook Air an an iPhone 16? I sent me the list.
you really can't make this sh*t up...pure comedy

always know that every single peronist/kirchnerist is lying 24/7, without exception. the gall to claim she can't afford medical insurance, yet rejects an affordable Android phone like EVERYONE ELSE HERE HAS to get a new iPhone and Macbook Air. probably the newest 2025 with the M4 chip, eh? lol lol lol i love this - we don't hate commies enough

speaking of the actual topic - Hot Sale - did anyone actually get anything good? all the prices i saw the whole week were just the same as always, but with flashy banners and "% OFF" discount labels. but i didn't order a single thing, whether whey protein or appliances (even though i wanted to)

I wondered about that with vitamins. We always load up at Costco when we go back to the USA. I hear many people complaining about multi-vitamins and they are very expensive or mostly not available even on Amazon or Mercado Libre to Argentina.

Amen.

I know people like that too @StatusNomadicus. They complain about being able to get by and they always have the latest iPhone and a fancy Apple computer. I have done well in my career but I don't even feel like I need those things!

You a big jerk! I had to go to Spain for 4 months to be with my aunt who was sick and die! Why you have to be asshole all the time! I very close with my aunt. I the closest to her. I care for her night and day! I struggle. My aunt die and leave me all her things. I lucky get inheritance from her but that situation just change.

I hope @Avocado your cousin come back soon and you get @StatusNomadicus deported from our country. He no deserve to be in Argentina. Let me know he name. I have many friends reporters here. We make him famous for cheating on he taxes. Maybe we can contact American IRS too!

Again @Che Vos was very sorry to hear about your aunt. I know you were very close to her. I'm very sorry for your loss.
 
To follow up on Hot Sale 2025 we have another big month of sales.

"Black Mayorista Mega Sales in Argentina"

After the success of the Hot Sale, this year marks the launch of the very first Black Mayorista (“Wholesale Black”), an event aimed at energizing the wholesale and retail sector in Argentina by offering great opportunities for both business owners and end consumers.

What is Black Mayorista?

Black Mayorista is an initiative bringing together over 190 wholesale businesses from across the country, offering significant discounts-up to 40%-on mass consumer products. The event runs from today through May 25, 2025.

What kinds of products are included?

During Black Mayorista, you’ll find deals on:

Food
Beverages
Personal hygiene items
Perfume and beauty products
Cleaning products

These discounts are designed for both small and medium business owners looking to stock up, and for end consumers who want to take advantage of wholesale pricing.

How can you take advantage of these deals?

Check the official Black Mayorista website or the participating stores’ websites for a list of products and discounts.

Compare prices among different wholesalers to find the best deals.

Take advantage of bulk purchasing, as many discounts apply to larger quantities.

Check payment methods and any additional bank promotions that may be available.

Why is this event important?

Black Mayorista arrives at a time when businesses are looking to replenish their stock and consumers are seeking more affordable prices, especially for essential goods. The event is expected to boost industry activity and help fight inflation by offering better prices.

Black Mayorista is an excellent opportunity to buy essential products at discounted prices, whether you own a business or are a regular consumer. Don’t miss out-the deals run through May 25!

Don't worry. It look like instead of just being smart and shutting his mouth he still no learn. My cousin in Spain but he has employee working on file already. They will have a list. Not difficult he say. Then we find out who it is. My cousin will send name to reporter friend. My cousin say to me he will go to seller first and give chance to turn in other people. The realtor, lawyer and @StatusNomadicus all have big problems.
