Great news! Isn't it nice to know that there are still a lot of honest folks out there?

We love Dra. Rocio. She's a great dentist and very caring. As another poster said, there are several very good dentists here. .

In Guad, I usually tip $200 min. and somewhere like Mexico City, $300-400 because of distance between gates and a couple of other factors. It's worth it to not have to struggle. It doesn't break the bank and it's always appreciated.

I'd just pay the ticket and save the aggro. Sorry to use an old cliche, but...

Thanks, everyone. We seem to be right on track with her salary, so I'll just up it accordingly for the increased hours. 1

It looks like a really nice place. If I may suggest, you might want to mention what the rent includes and what's separate (ie, gas, electricity, and all of those other fun things). Good luck!

We've had our cleaner working for us for years, but we'd like to up her hours (long story). Every year, we've increased her pay, but we'd really just like an average of the going rate for Chapala to make sure we've kept up with everyone. FWIW, we also give her a decent lunch, aguinaldos, time off whenever she wants it (with pay), so this is strictly for the hours. TIA!

Sadly, I can tell you of several to avoid, but Mainecoons is rigth...PM is the best way to go.

I'm a bit late, but another vote for Chopo. Unfortunately, as we age, more medical tests have been needed more frequently and so we've had to go there many times. Go online to get a discount, too!

Another vote for IHerb. I've used them for protein products that cost an arm and a leg if you go the Amazon route (if you can even find them) and they arrive on time and very reasonably priced. They also come straight to the house.

And this is exactly why I love living in Mexico! Great story, thanks.1

That was a really fair and honest appraisal of the company. Tks for the link!

I love a happy ending!

Thanks for the link! It doesn't look like much from the road, but they have a surprisingly decent selection and the quality of the granite and work can't be beat.

I'd like to give a really strong recommendation for Granite Fantasy in Riberas. We had to replace one of the countertops in our kitchen and the staff made everything so easy! We knew that we weren't going to be able to get the same as we already had, but wanted to get something in black that would complement the other colors. No problem! The staff are really helpful and friendly. The total price included the removal of the previous granite counter, making the new counter to measurements, installation, and would have included removal of the old stovetop (parilla) that was in the previous counter, but we'd promised that (and the old counter) to someone since they were still in good shape. Everything went like clockwork! They're on FB (I can't give any more info about that since I don't use FB). The address is #243A Hidalgo, Riberas. 331-068-6029 If you drive there, it's on the left of Lago Montana Real Estate (HUGE black sign/frontage with the letters in gold).
