    Searching for some special light bulbs in the house for one of the lamps , I went into the spare room and found two full cans of Off and two unopened packs of spirals. I reckon that will see us through to the end of the month.

    Will these little bastards ease off next month or no?

    My missus also found two cans of green OFF yesterday. Which didn't surprise me in the least as she leaves stuff lying about everywhere. Whereas I always know where I leave my beer!!

    I'm pleased to see I can buy OFF on Amazon ahead of my trip. So I will fill up a suitcase.

    You will all find my prices very reasonable!

    There was an American on FB looking to buy a mosquito repellent can for 40,000 ARS.

    I'd say you can afford yourself a checked bag this time, @Bombonera ... or two!!! :th_giggle01:

    Of course, I was only joking and I wouldn't dream of it. But that said it is a worthy opportunity given the shortage locally.

    No judgment here. There is even an app/website for people from abroad to bring stuff to deprived expats from the first world, called grabr. I have never used it myself, but I have read raving reviews about it on FB.

    Can be a way to finance your Argentinian semi-vacation!

    If bringing in some quantity, try to find the simple non-aresol spray. Aerosol in luggage has limits, and even less for carryon.
