Thanks for the tip, Moonwitch! (And to those of you who sent me PMs, too.) I would have responded sooner except BAexpats was down when I tried to access it yesterday! My review was postponed to today and it went very well, except that we could not talk about money. I expect to have that...

I'm up for my 3-month review at my new job and I could use some help on salary negotiating -- could you give me some advice? (I learned today that it will be tomorrow morning!) I know each situation is unique, so here are some details that might matter: I do online community management/social...

Any chance you guys know where I can find Mi Villano Favorito (Despicable Me) playing in the cinema, in 3D, in English with castellano subtitles? All the showings I've found so far seem to be dubbed in castellano. Any tips would be great! Whether you know where it is playing, or if you have a...

I gave Ramiro a couple of translations that I needed for my work visa and he was superb - fast, professional, friendly and reasonably-priced. He did the translation as well as the certification that each one needed to have. Made the process very easy. I will definitely go to him the next time I...

Hey guys, I just wanted to share the contact information for a plumber / heater / gas technician with whom I've had a really good experience recently. Francisco F. Viera ph. 4753-4612 celu. 15-4474-5860 He came to do service on our heaters a couple of times this winter and was on-time, very...

Hi ladies, Yesterday i stumbled upon a great little women's fashionable casual clothing store in Belgrano called Flamenca. (Cabildo 2214) They're small but they've got a great style -- interesting, pretty pieces with character. Not cheap but not too expensive. I think it's their only location...

Another recommendation for Ryan, mentioned above. Knows his craft extremely well and will work with you until you're happy with it, even if it means that you go back for a fix-up! I have dark fine curly hair and I've been very happy with him, next appointment is next week actually. :)

Hey gals - can any of you also recommend a wonderful gynecologist who takes Galeno (azul)? I've looked up a lot of the names already given here, but no luck finding them in my booik so far. It'll be my first visit to a gyn here, so I'm a little nervous about finding someone good. :) thanks in...

I came here to ask the same question -- thanks, bellcurve! Just to add on a detail, I'd also love to know whether these places require a minimum purchase of some sort during the game, I'm trying to find an option with everything bellcurve described that won't break the bank. :) gracias a todos! :)

Hi Nora! I'm interested in seeing a photo of the duvet cover & pillow cases. Could you also send me their dimensions? Thanks, and good luck with your move! Liz

Oh, how I wish I could've heard about that and attended! I bet it was amazing. Napolean, is there a list of upcoming functions that we can take a look at? )The calendar on their website doesn't list an event until May 26th.)

Thanks guys. I'll check those places out and keep my eyes open for others, too. (This is when I really miss a place like Target! :)

Gracias, Alzinho! I will check them out. Anyone else? I'd even be happy with a big blanket, and it can be something mass produced or something hand-made - I just want to find something sort of pretty and interesting and nice to look at. :)

I'm like you - I arrived in September 2009 and I haven't yet paid the reciprocity fee. I've been to Colonia twice since I got here and they've never asked me to pay the fee. (I don't think it matters, but I went once via Buquebus and once via Seacat. That time, the Seacat boat broke down before...

I'm looking for a place to get an inexpensive bedspread or quilt. (A duvet and/or comforter might be fine, too, but I think I prefer the others.) Ideally it'll be something that's good quality but not terribly expensive or luxurious. Any suggestions? I've tried Arredo and a couple other places...

Hey everyone - I just wanted to mention that this room is still available! (We had a plan fall through.) It's available immediately, so if you're looking for a comfortable, relaxed, home-y place to live with a couple of nice roommates, please send me a PM. We look forward to hearing from you! :)

How about an intensive Spanish class? The TEFL school offers a good one at a good price. 3 hours a day, 5 days per week. I really enjoyed the class that I took there in January - I learned a lot because it's a good class, but it also gave me some much-needed structure and purpose to my days. :)...

Hey Christy! I may be interested in the rugs and if you happen to have table lamp or desk lamp. I'll drop you a PM. Good luck with your move!

Hey All, One of our roommates is moving out and we are looking for someone to take her place. The apartment is 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms and is located on Las Heras and Billinghurst. The location is great, with lots of cafes, restaurants and stores nearby and within two blocks of Parque Las...

Thanks for the feedback, jp. I've looked at elance before, but I get scared away by the super-low bidding that can happen on those types of sites. Have you had success there? Bigbadwolf, did you have a specific experience that gave you that impression? I'm interested in whether anyone has...
