Tingting

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).

Sorry to hear this happened to you, but I've had great results with TEMU and only one crap product which I immediately returned. On a shipment that disappeared into the void after receiving tracking updates stating that it was on the way to my house, they immediately refunded the order, after a quick set of questions (asking what happened, basically), I returned (at their expense) the crap product and will be receiving a refund on that, too. The good thing is that everything was done on a credit card. Obviously, if there was an issue with the refunds, I'd challenge it on the card. I have to say that I've bought quite a bit from them and despite the slightly long (about 3 weeks) wait time, I have received some amazing products at an unbelievably cheap price. I go to the site knowing that I'll rarely get "name" products. I don't care. I take generic medications, so who cares what the label is on my shirt as long as I like the shirt? I know I didn't buy a Canon camera, but a "Saneen," yet the quality and features on the cheapie are pretty impressive. The key is to really look at the description, the photos, the reviews, and then at the size (if applicable). One thing I can honestly say is that I've never received something that wasn't the same as in the pic and description, but those are my experiences. FWIW, no, I'm not trying to plug Temu or contradict Natasha's posting. I've no doubt that she didn't get a good product and is right to be unhappy, but my experiences have been the complete opposite for nearly everything. Still, proceed with caution as YMMV.

Wow, just wow... In this day and age of cameras in nearly every possible location except bathrooms, you'd think they'd know better. Hope the folks involved are identified and shamed into paying for the repairs.

When did they start to require appointments? I've always just walked in whenever I bought or sold a scooter. This is definitely good information to have, thanks!

Geez, it's a JOKE about HARRY'S parentage. Nothing more, nothing less. And yes, I will continue to comment when I feel it's warranted.

Personally, I'd appreciate it if someone did this for me if they got my mail by mistake. If you don't get any bites, then you can always do a "Return to Sender" or something, but if you can get it to the person(s) directly, it'd be faster...and a lot more reliable!

Sorry, Natasha, but I also think it's funny. Is it black humor or in poor taste? Yup. So are a lot of the jokes here. That doesn't make it any less funny, but JMHO.

Bwahahahaha...oops, sorry. Obviously, this is an important and necessary thing, but I'm not holding my breath. It'll be enforced for a while and then it'll be back to business as usual. Heck, I'm waiting to see when they stop the scooters with the entire family on them. I don't know how many times I've seen some 3 or 4 year old in the front, helmetless, and "driving"while Dad sits behind him, another kid hanging on from the middle or side, and Mom precariously balanced on the tail section. Ah, life in Mexico!

Youtube tv is good, also. You need a reliable VPN (we use Express), but it gives us all of the channels we want and then some. Every so often we have to change the location of the VPN, but...so far, so good. We used to use LiveNet tv and Mobtv (I think that's what it's called), but a lot of the channels are disappearing and they're both too unreliable. Although they're free, who knows how long they'll be around?

We used to be regulars, but the waitstaff's attitude really changed from "May I help you?" to "Whaddya want" (implied, not said, lol). The food took a very noticeable nosedive, too. We haven't returned.
