Do you have a website link or instagram group? How do I contact them?

Thank you FrankPintor, D.B. Cooper, Quilombo and elhombresinnombre for the replies! I sent a message off to one of the shelters that I found https://www.centromichimiau.com.ar/, I'll post if I get a response. I also plan to visit Plaza Las Heras and Parque Centenario and check them out.

Hello group, I searched here but didn't find any current information. 16 years ago we adopted Rocky from a great shelter "Sociedad Protectura de Animales "Sarmiento"" in Monserrat but they no longer seem to be running. Doing a search on animal shelters has a lot of outdated information. Does...

That's why I asked the question, there are "hundreds" of articles and things change in Argentina daily, so it's hard to keep up with "what is what".

Thank you Carride!

I don't understand what MEP is. Is this just a way of buying USA dollars from the bank?

Santander has a real crazy way of displaying charges and payments. After my monthly cycle closed, then the 60% taxes appeared on the converted USA charge (which I originally made in Arg pesos, the government converts all charges made outside Argentina into a USA dollar charge). On a USA...

Yes, the Santander rep mentioned about buying dollars with MEP, I had no idea what he was talking about as I've never bought dollars here. Is MEP just the bank way of selling USA $$?

I just spent about an hour trying to figure this out. I looked at our April statement and they withdrew $2,692.86 pesos from my account to pay for a USA charge on my account of $1.86 2692.86/1090 (blue peso rate then) = USA $2.47 for a $1.86 charge The difference is because of the large tax...

Yes, when I went to Santander to talk to someone, he said the best thing to do is deposit USA $$$ into the dollar part of my account, this way you pay the charged amount in dollars with dollars, and then he said you will get an automatic "refund" from the government from part of the tax. I...

Sorry, should have included that, Disco - Rodríguez Peña 1430 between Las Heras and Juncal in Recoleta. Believe it or not but they also had Horse Radish, first time I ever saw that in Buenos Aires in 23 years of living here. But Disco is horrible with their stock, things come and go, I'm...

This is a monthly charge from youtube premium so I can see this happening every month.

We have a Santander debit and credit card. Recently I purchased some show tickets for an upcoming trip to Mexico, the Mexican show quoted me a price in Argentina pesos. When the charge arrived at Santander, it was converted into a USA $$ amount. I contacted the Mexican company and they...

The Disco near me carries Heinz Relish.

I don't know for sure, but an Argentine friend said it's a yearly amount of $600 USA.

epago.correoargentino.com.ar How much should I pay in taxes if I exceed the allowed amount? The new regime provides that taxes should not be paid as long as 12 purchases are made annually, worth US$50 each. If this quota is exceeded, the buyer must pay 50% of the cost of the product in taxes...

My first experience with picking up a package at the international post office was over 20 years ago and it was a disaster, it took almost 3 hours to get my package which was just a box of cookies my mom sent me for XMas. I told her NEVER to send me anything ever again. I recently ordered...

A friend told me about Punto Verde, an organization that accepts electronics and other things to recycle. They have a booth at the traveling "ferias de la ciudad" that go around the city selling produce and household items, I live by Plaza Vicente Lopez and the feria is here on Thursdays. They...

The store in Constitución looked very well organized, I didn't look around but was glad to see the things on display for sale to people who needed things at a good price. Feels good to donate things I no longer need that others may find helpful.

Thanks, that sounds perfect! I'll check them out!
