We saw a bedspread that we'd like to order on Mercado Libre but it was marked 'International'. I'm concerned that the product might get hung up in customs or take months to get here. Has anyone ordered anything that was similarly marked?

I have had success with Google Fi. Good clear connections, local US number and, very important, reliably getting sms codes for two step verifications. It used to require activation in the US.

Is there a big difference in seats between economy and premium economy on Aero or Iberia? Btween premium economy and business? Asking for someone who doesn't like to spend money but has a bad back.

Is there any safe, reliable way to get discounted Business or First Class tickets to U.S. or Europe?

Just saw 24.500pesos ($19.41usd) for a hamburger in a gas station!!!

My dog flew to BA several years ago. I punched holes in the crate to assure good airflow and put ice in his water bowl. At that time the procedures for taking possession of our dog at EZE were complicated so my wife went there a few days early and did a walk through. When he arrived she was...

In Florida they believe in putting Hepa-filters on their a.c. to catch the pollen. Shampooing before bed (to get the pollen out) might help. I've only found one thing that works for sure, get to a beach and breathe ocean or river air.

I'm a New Yorker. Never had allergies until I retired and moved to Florida. Then I started getting pretty sick with allergy symptoms during pollen season. I had several rounds of allergy tests for the 30 most common allergens but they did not detect any allergies. Since moving here I've...

What are the names of some of the restaurants that prepare your lunch in front of you? Hamburgers? Milanese? Sandwiches? Omlettes?

Done, that they all seem to serve leftovers around noon.

I like to eat lunch shortly afternoon which means that I'm usually one of the first customers in a restaurant. I usually order a salad which is not a problem but when I order a burger or carne sandwich or milanese I get yesterdays leftovers that are far from fresh, usually overcooked and have...

We recently spent two weeks in Leblon in Rio. We saw no incidents, no homeless, no troublemakers hanging out on the streets or parks.

This year we did our winter escape in Leblon and felt very safe. Each building had a 24 hour security guard that was often in front of their building during the day. The beaches were not patrolled but we had no problems. We also made wonderful excursions to Paraty and Ilha Grande with no...

We're at the early stages of working on this problem. There seems to be no question that the college never disbursed any money for this payroll item. My wife has asked to speak to the payroll managers superior and I have urged her to consult her personal accountant.

My wife is a departmental chairman at a local college. Last month her computer crashed just as she was finishing sending in the departments payroll for the month. It took a few weeks to find the bug and fix it. During that time she used my computer. She just received notice that, during...

A few days ago I stopped at a local gas station just outside CABA for a coffee. $3.85 was charged to my credit card. I mentioned it to a friend who lives in Brooklyn, which is inside New York City. He said that a cup of coffee at his local gas stations is $2. No wonder people here are...

I've been using Mercado Libre regularly for a long time. Now I'm locked out because, no matter what I do, its facial recognition rejects me. Are there any good alternatives to Mercado Libre?

I'll appreciate a referral for an electrician that has experience installing Starlink.

Its my understanding that the car rental companies are required to include a token (small amount) of liability insurance. I should have said that I need a liability policy with higher limits.

I'll be renting a car in the U.S. in January. I'd appreciate recommendations for purchasing auto rental insurance other than from the car rental company. I especially need Liability insurance. TIA
