  1. Lily H is spot on! How can anyone bitch about an upgrade of medical care availability close to home?
  2. At Dr Haro's office, Dr Pilar cleans our teeth... Extremely efficient but gentle... Highly recomend her...
  3. For the best selection, a trip to GDL is best... Home Depot has a nice selection...
  4. I have made the mistake of removing the card before the transaction finished and received the same message. The machine needs to be able to read the chip in order to connect with the bank... My child bride of 56 years explained this to me and YES she was correct!
  5. Agree with Johanson, H2Ole provides excellent service... I have Jackie change my filters every three months and bring the salt... It costs more than when I did it myself but the convenience pays for itself... Jackie's salt was 150 pesos... Certainly not worth driving around on $4/gal gas to look for cheaper salt...
  6. To purchase AND register a car, one must have a Temporal or Permanente visa. I would suggest contacting Spencer at S&S auto... You pay the same price as at the auto dealers in Guad... I have purchased two new and one used from Spencer with excellent results... S&S phone: 765-4800...
  7. Be aware that if your status changes and it is not reported you lose your TIP...
  8. Recommend Chuy Rodriquez at 333 956 7323. We have had him for almost 4 years and his service is great... He handles minor pool repairs also... He has his own transportation... Highly recommend!!!
  9. Lakeside Medical Group is moving to the hospital and they accept Tricare coverage...
  10. 10000 usually available Tues-Thurs... Used to be 40000 but no more...
  11. You can drive a US plated car here if you have a temperal visa but not a permanete. Car should have up to date plates... Importing is expensive...
  12. Received a call last night from a "good friend"... No name ... I said I didn't have any friends and hung up... Perfect English...
  13. We are another happy client of Nyah and the team!
  14. Rick S: I have to disagree with you as I am not wealthy... Those still in the workforce also saw larger paychecks since the rates were cut... Less withholding means less back in returns...
  15. We received $1000 more back this year so the tax cut does work... Unfortunately, we have just the standard deductions...
  16. Having lived in Europe for a great number of years, I would like to point out that the roads here are not cobblestone they are rocks... No comparison!
  17. Information on llOX would be greatly appreciated... I am getting really tired of TelMex going down every Sunday morning...
  18. What is the current exchange rate for the renewal of US passports?
  19. Some info from those folks looking to buy hearing aids. a. Polo at LCS will sell the same model Costco sells at the same price. b. Costco sold hearing aids have a code that only allows Costco to adjust them... Something I didn't know. All brands other than Costco's can be adjusted locally by Polo... c. Costco does not carry a vendor's full line but only those models that sell... Which makes sense, but doesn't give the customer a full range of options... d. Ear molds are a thing of the past... A digital camera now takes a picture of the inner ear and the mold is 3d constructed... A big advance... e. I have to agree that hearing aids are expensive but they can be purchased on credit which raises the cost but does provide an option...
  20. For Legion members, the cost was $8500 or $9000 pesos prepaid...
  21. America ship will tell you what the cost will be BEFORE you buy a product... Cost is based on the size, weight and value... We have items shipped to their Brownsville address (normally free from the vendor) and we use our Handy mail address as the delivery point... No charge for Handy mail customers...
  22. America ship provides estimated customs duty on items... One must send a copy of the receipt with the value and the size and weight of the article... I had a replacement poster sent with no value and was charged no duty...
  23. We use Amazon (US) for many things and a shipping service for others. Both quote the custom charges before we buy...
  24. Dra Pilar at Haro's is excellent...Barragan has an excellent reputation...
