What to do if you get a fake bill from an ATM
Al Berca replied to Mainecoons's topic in Ajijic/Chapala/Guadalajara
I unknowingly paid my gardener with a forged 500 peso bill several years ago that I received from Multiva ATM machine and unknowingly passed it on to my gardener who returned it to me after having had it refused by three different retailers. I replaced it for him and headed over to Multiva with the forgery. After some questions and paperwork and a couple of months I also received a full replacement from Multiva. -
Same problems at my house.

Most of us expats drive Jalisco plated, not foreign plated, vehicles. -

....mandatory for cars that are registered.... Are our cars not registered? -
Drove past it on their frontage road yesterday about 5 pm. Drove really slow as I am not familiar at all with that restaurant and wanted to check out what the inside looked like since all the doors were open and there was a greeter on their door steps. Nice interior, looks comfortable. All chairs were empty at 5 pm. Not sure if that means anything but I was surprised.

Usual wait times for various healthcare services
Al Berca replied to blankletmusic's topic in Ajijic/Chapala/Guadalajara
Not a realistic comparison. The Riberas hospital stands alone. The San Antonio hospital is virtually a shopping center with two hospitals, a farmacia or three, at least one restaurant, an eye glasses office and the list goes on. It is full most of the time. Lots of shoppers there. Not the same at all. Not even similar. -
20 pesos. 30 if he has a helper.

Enjoyed it, but could you add an intermission on the next one? -
Sorry, I just remember seeing his name on quite a few posts on a fairly regular basis. I didn’t read them and don’t remember the names of the different sites. Go back to the forums and scroll until you see his name. Shouldn’t take but a minute or so and then click on it to get his email address. If that doesn’t do it write to the website administrator.

He posts his opinions several times a day on FaceBook forums and has for years.

Which is the Best Funeral Home for Pre-Death arrangements?
Al Berca replied to Meli's topic in Ajijic/Chapala/Guadalajara
San Francisco also does all of the things that Daisy mentions. I went through them and know first hand. They were my choice. -
Great suggestion. Thanks, Lexy.

I didn’t think I would feel sad about anyone leaving this board no matter what the reason. I was wrong.

Final day of Mardi Gras. Ash Wednesday tomorrow.

I pay full salary for each unused vacation day every year with my domestic employees. Do not carry the amount over. What is not used each year is paid in cash with the aguinaldo.

Of course there was, but apparently you also missed that.

Almost 170 dollars in your case.
