Our place in Palermo Viejo charges 16 pesos per bag, 2 pesos more for bleach.

We bought some very cool pillows at calma chicha (http://www.calmachicha.com/)

get married. the men will come out of the woodworks. of course, it will be too late then. ;)

mmm don't agree with respect to quality clothing, especially for kids. If I buy a t-shirt in M&S for 5 pounds I don't expect it to last for life, but perhaps a year without the seams falling apart, the color being washed out or the shape disappearing. Problem is if I buy an equivalent kids...

The thing that amazes me is the complaints about quality for the price from many expats here on the board. I am always reading how you can't find good pots and pans or other kitchenware or that the baby items are cheap like strollers and car seats or that there are no well made clothing. It's...

I had a relatively good base of vocabulary but never the opportunity to converse in Spanish so I was looking for someone to help me with that as well. I found (through a friend of mine) a woman that comes to my house every week for an hour or more and we just talk. Often times we go to the...

I live near there. I'm a woman with a child and I feel totally safe in the day and at night I've felt safe as well. I'm not out at 3 a.m., so I can't speak to that. I love the area.

As far as the apartment goes, my husband and I arrived after arranging an apartment though http://buenosairespeople.com and we're so happy with the service as well as with the guy that runs it that I started working with him to try to help him out (and to give me something to do myself). We got...

I agree with F.J. I think you'd be hard pressed to find some civil rights violation there, unless they said they were no longer going to allow hispanic short term renters. Tourists are not a protected class. I know in the U.S. Co-Op boards can vote for these kinds of bans. I would imagine...

check out http://buenosairespeople.com There are good weekly rates available, if you decide to go that route.

I'm 33, husband 40, son 1 New York, NY Arrived Sept 9, 2010

We were told when we were looking for an apartment that often if you are able to pay six months ahead that an owner may be convinced to let you pass on the garantia. We are doing something similar, paying three months at a time. It has to be the right owner and you have to have the money, but...

What, what, what? I live in NYC for 9 years and I can say that people dashing out to get one step ahead of you is an every stoplight occurrence, as is blocking the box, entering the subway before before allowing for people to get off, not moving to the rear of the bus to allow for people to...

Sorry, I've not updated my personal info since we first arrived.

We rent a place that's easily three times the size of our NYC studio, a one bedroom, full kitchen/bath with patio area in the back of a private house in the right near Plaza Cerano for $700 U.S. with everything included, and I've been told it's expensive, but compared to many of the apartments...

check out this one for $750. It's in Recoleta but in the price range http://buenosairespeople.com/?p=337 . We do have one in Las Cañitas that is super nice with a pool available then, but it's $1000/month but that includes everything. http://buenosairespeople.com/?cat=18 If you have any...

Agreed. The computer access alone should give it away. Spoiled rotten. I'll admit that I am. I don't want to say we all are and start a message board riot, but seriously $100 usd/week minimum wage here is crazy in u.s. terms. That's like my wine budget. I have a friend that spends more on...

Different cows eating different grass = different milk. It's the same as baking bread somewhere that has different flour with different water is going to yield a different loaf. I am a huge milk drinker, like a glass of milk with dinner kind of milk drinker, and I find the milk here to be...

Thanks for the suggestions. I am not opposed to free, but sometime your selection is pretty limited. I tried amazon, but no-go.
