Tried Easy this past weekend and nada. (But maybe they were just out of stock.) But then on a hunch tried a local Liberia and bingo! Only one choice - sort of wide, but I think less than a meter, and any length you want. $20 (pesos) per meter. And the clerk spoke very good English. On...

Thanks Nancy. Sounds like good advice. I will use it after I have consumed the two containers I already have. Bob

So here's my experience ... I tried Tina's. Thank you for the recommendation. Interesting store. Don't go on a nice weekend day. Very crowded with slow-moving patrons, often slow-moving entire families. Found a product which looked like humus and said humus on the label but also said...

I've tried two grocery stores but no luck. I am not interested in making it. I'd just like to buy 1/2 a cup or a cup. Thanks, Bob

Nevermind. (Edit doesn't seem to allow the author to delete a post altogether)

Wandering up and down Florida, including all of the stores in the Galerías Pacífico, and looking in the display window of every men's store and leather store I pass, I have not seen any store which looks like it would have a large selection of leather belts for men. Any recommendations...

Any ideas on where to find a nightlight? I tried the electrical section at Easy and the baby aisles at Jumbo but no luck. I don't care about appearance, but I would much prefer CFL or LED over incandescent. Thanks, Bob

Don't you mean: pretty harmless unless a mosquito who bites you then bites someone who is pregnant.

Wongjoh very kindly responded to a PM informing me that the money will have to go to a bank account. Bob

What's most similar here to a Pinot Grigio / Sauvignon Blanc? I think that I tried something once which claimed to be a sauvignon blanc but did not care for it. Thanks, Bob

(I will try hard to make this my last ever MercadoLibre question.) My cuenta shows an "en cuenta" amount and then the same amount as "disponible". Next to the disponible amount is a "Retirar dinero" link. I's like to withdraw my money but I am afraid that if I click Retirar Dinero something...

(Thanks to Gringoboy for help and sympathy via PMs.) So sent another curt (but, thankfully, not nasty) note to the seller and this time he responded that he had returned the money to my "account". Account? Who knew that I had a MercadoLibre account. A little poking around and sure enough I...

So I went to Rapipago and gave them 11.000 pesos and got a receipt. And then received contact info for the seller. And so immediately sent him an email. That's been well over 24 hours ago and I have not heard from him! I am getting very worried. Please tell me that he does not yet have my...

Maybe I know the answer to the question I asked about whether Rapipago takes dollars. But then again maybe I don't. According to a Rapipago map of their locations they have one at 1452 Ecuador, between Sante Fe and Arenales. But that address is certainly not a Rapipago location. But...

I now have a Rapipago number. Will the Rapipago places take US dollars at a fair exchange rate? Thanks, Bob

I tried Jumbo yesterday but no luck. Kellogg Wellness (or a similar name) and Corn Flakes yes, but nothing else Kellogg. Thanks Nancy, I'll try Tina's tomorrow. Bob

A year ago I could find the Original but not my preferred Bran Buds. Yesterday I could not find any Kellogg 100% bran cereal at either of two Discos. I bought a local brand and it is edible. But I'd sure like to find one of the Kellogg products. Not interested in anything less than 100%/...

Thanks for responding Gringoboy. The posting says "Entrega a acordar con el vendedor" (which Google Translate says means "Delivery to agree with seller"). Does that mean that the seller will arrange for and pay for delivery? Thanks, Bob

I really like the idea of a non-cash transaction. But you mention a "printout". Does that mean I would need a printer (which I do not have)? I also really like the idea of protection for "DOA/damaged". But how does that work? Who arranges for the delivery? What happens if there is damage...

I have sent you a PM. Bob
