Be careful though about investing in imported machines (the only good ones!) as for the time being you can't get even the simplest replacement part if something breaks. If you buy from a store, invest in the Guarantia Extendida. You may be best off just waiting until an expat puts one up for sale.

Hi Susanne, I'm sorry to hear about your daughter's problem! It is unfortunately not uncommon here. My son is at a very nice private school and I have to do a treatment at least once a semester. No one is safe. I can't recommend a salon, but any Farmacity store (they are on almost every...

Will the NCAA Tournament be shown on any cable channels here?

Come on please! I know someone out there has this info :)

Without a doubt you need to call Josh (i.e. MacDaddy). He is the best with all Mac products I've ever seen both inside the States and out! This is the link to his add of the Services Offered forum: http://baexpats.org/services-offered/10939-have-mac-need-help-call-macdaddy.html

There is a lot of info about dentists on this site, but I'm not coming up with a clear recommendation for a pediatric dentist. I just need someone good for teeth cleaning for a 9 year old. Language isn't a problem We are in Recoleta, but don't mind traveling all help appreciated!

I'm interested in info on the rugs: dimensions, history, prices.

Wait, didn't we go over this the last time a crock pot question came up? An arrocera is a rice cooker (found everywhere in Barrio Chino), but a rice cooker is something very different from a crock pot...?

I'm going to stop by that store tomorrow! How on Earth do you say "crockpot" in porteño Spanish??

My 9 year old son is a native English speaker, but has attended and all Spanish school in Argentina since the age of 6. In anticipation of returning to the US within the next few years, I would like to hire a tutor to work with him on his English writing and reading skills. I'd prefer someone...

Can't recommend Ida Razick enough! She is amazing.http://www.fuelba.blogspot.com/

At Kansas you can get a very respectable coleslaw under the name coleslaw.

Yes, I've been on the webpage. It just didn't mention iPhones specifically, and I wanted to clarify whether the plan was a different price. Yes, I will call Movistar tomorrow, but I'm looking at a phone on ebay now and wanted some accurate information before making a purchase (the most...

Just that--how much does it cost you each month with a plan from Movistar for an iPhone?

We are members of the pool at Club de Amigos, but they don't let you invite guests in on a day pass who aren't members. We have a couple with a child visiting for a few days, and we'd like to take them for a day at a pool. It could be a nice public pool or a pool where we need to pay (nothing...

Josh is amazing! We've used his services several times, and we are great fans of his. He gave a whole year of life back to an ancient Mac that had failed entirely. He fixed it up, updated all the programs, and saved my all my data. That year got us through until a trip to the States when we...

I did a stupid thing. In the order of toys I had my husband bring back from the States on his last trip I accidentally ordered 2 of the same set of Legos. It is "Hagrid's Hut" (#4738) You can see it in the link below. I ordered it from Amazon.com at the beginning of November for $50 USD, and I...

See I wouldn't have thought that being the hairdresser for Susana Gimenez would be a positive. Upon hearing that I'd have run the other way and quick! Have you ever seen a more tragic head of hair? Unless of course you're into the Barbie doll blonde plastic hair look... To each his own :)

I need to buy a good clothes dryer. It is to replace a really great Ariston machine we bought a few years ago that we've been trying to repair since March but can't as the tiny part it needs is a banned import. Sigh. Anyway, I would like recommendations for durable clothes dryers that won't...

2 years ago on baexpats I found the address of a business in Palermo (I think?) that uploaded all the Argentine maps to my North American GPS. I can't find it anymore, and my machine needs to have an update done. Any help please?
