    Registering with MercadoLibre

    I can't even log in anymore. It keeps telling me to verify that the account really belongs to me. First, it makes me verify via whatsapp, which is fine, but then it takes me to a screen asking for pictures of my ID. It won't take my passport, and I can't figure out how to get customer support...

    English-speaking dentists & ferry schedule/prices to Uruguay

    Love Your Dentist out of Villa Urquiza was nice. Both of the dentists I met spoke pretty good english, and you can do scheduling and such through whatsapp if you're like me and hate talking on the phone.

    What medical insurance do you use?

    Looking for recommendations. Not sure if I've found a good deal or not. I didn't have any at all when I came here, but now I'm financially secure enough to start looking, and everything I've found through Google so far just looks so skeevy. Plus, I can't find one that will cover medication. I...

    Registering with MercadoLibre

    I did that, too, but they've started forcing me to show a photo of my ID for verification. I don't have a DNI, and so I've lost access to my account. Not sure how, or if I even could get it to stop. EDIT: I also can't make a new account. They want a picture of a DNI card right from creation.

    Lactaid or something like it?

    Do they have anything like lactaid here? I couldn’t get my pharmacist to understand what I was looking for. I think he thought i wanted him to import lactaid for me? I don’t know. If anyone knows what I should ask for, I’d be really grateful.

    Good way to buy English language books?

    AliExpress is going to take a month to get here. Does anyone know a better way to order them quickly? My partner ran out of stuff to read.

    Has the best way to get USD changed at all?

    I just got back, and the rate was 1155 ars to 1 usd. I hope that was a good deal. According to bluedollar.net, the bank rate is 814. Should I have just gone there instead?

    Has the best way to get USD changed at all?

    I'm getting ready to pay my rent. Normally, I would go to Western Union with a ton of pesos and buy the USD that way (I have a learning disability, so I'm really bad at haggling.) But with all the upheaval, is there a better way now? Is it worth trying to find blue dollar at the moment? I...

    Ooh, I didn't think of vinegar. I'll give it a shot. Thanks.

    Can anyone recommend a good stovetop cleaner?

    I've been sick for the last few weeks, and now that I'm starting to finally feel better and get the apartment back in order, I've found the stovetop is perpetually sticky. Back in the States, I just used dish soap, but that doesn't seem to be helping here. I don't know if I left it too long or...

    Quick question about Western Union

    I found a WU location that does cambio, and I tried to ask this question to them directly, but language barrier. So I need to send dollars to myself. Can I just receive my transfer in dollars there, or do I still need to go through getting my money in pesos and then going to other counter to...

    Oh, man, thank you for the searching tip. I'll remember that for next time. And much, much thank you for helping me find it.

    Has anyone seen Häagen-Dazs?

    I know it's silly, but I'm really craving some vanilla Häagen-Dazs. There was a Jumbo on Av Cervino that carried it earlier this year, but I went back last week, and I guess they don't anymore. Does anyone know where else i could find it?

    Could someone make a phonecall for me?

    Uh, can't seem to edit my original post, so I'll just say it here. I've been reminded Whatsapp exists. I'll use that instead. I'm now unwatching this thread. Thank you.
