I ain't vaxing and I think getting聽 warranty on anything outside the USA is not worth the hassle...Brasil is bad enoughgetting a warray here respected聽 is hurry up and wait maybe it wI'll get repaired in a year and the flip side try getting them to take the shit back...mother mccree...or a refund, when they say ppint of sale, its true...I will die before I vax.....had a bad experience with doctors I would be dead crippled up and dead listening to those quacks....trust me....I have freinds who were doctors and they quit...lol...I hate 2 doctors....hope they got #19 and not survived....the bastards......bad doctors,bad cops...lol

Yep.聽 We haven't been back since Christmas 2019.聽 Starting to miss seeing family, even with constant (sometimes TOO constant!聽

We were all going to get together in Italy this year - E and I have even been learning Italian on Duolingo,聽 so we could do more than nod and smile when we get there - but that's on hold now.
Hang in there, stay safe,聽 and don't do anything rash.

#19 won't calm down, life will never be the same.....yet I digress with progress.
Before looking at who might be eligible for a second stimulus check, let's review who's been excluded in the first round.
A single taxpayer with an adjusted gross income (AGI) above $99,000
A head of a household with an AGI over $136,500
A married couple with an AGI over $198,000
Children over 16 and college students under age 24
A nonresident alien as defined by the US government
Info on 2nd Stimulas, if there is one......
Who could potentially qualify for a broad second stimulus payment?
Individuals who made less than $99,000 according to the adjusted gross income from their 2018 or 2019 taxes (whichever was most recently filed).
College students, dependents over 17, disabled relatives and a taxpayer's parent.聽
Families of up to five people.
People who aren't US citizens and file tax returns, pay taxes and otherwise comply with federal tax law using an individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN) instead of a Social Security number.

You will find many US labels, discounted liquor, electronics about the same price as the USA.
The only thing is being sure you are in a major shop, not a "mom & pop".
As to Mulheres. since the BR/PY war, the senoritas outnumber men 2 to1. Now many are, let's just say, "weathered".
When to border opens, give your email and I'll pass along.
Most of the fine senoritas are in Foz where the $$$ is.

I always considered Foz as a strategic point in military parlance. Good for shopping GI goods at Ciudad del Este PY, beautiful se帽oritas, and if the dollar becomes 1:1 due to hyperinflation, CDE is your refuge. Grizz, you should now be setting up your reconnaissance camp there now ready to engage just in case Brazil sinks to the abyss. I believe you can even set up a dollar account there.

We stocked up on electronics while we were in Foz, and quite frankly, figured "screw the warranty!"聽 We followed Tex's advice and only went to legit shops聽 - there's a travel agency in Foz that makes it really easy - and got international-grade items at a good price.聽 I trust them as much as or more than the comparable models that meet Brazil specs, and cost 50-100% more here.聽 And really, how often have you needed to use a cellphone warranty, and how happy have you been with the result?聽
Tex is right about warranties here.聽 We tried to get warranty repairs on two Brazilian items.聽 One we were refused flat out, the other we waited six weeks for the repairs to be completed, and the thing burned out again in a month.聽 And this is a "benefit" of buying Brazilian?聽
The only real hitch at Foz is the 100% Customs inspection on all outgoing domestic flights, but if you don't go hog wild in CdE, you'll breeze through that.
Doc, True as to money. They love U$D more than Foz.

I had a Brastemp fridge repaired in SC and never got it back. I waited for 2 years to be repaired and finally the repairman stated that it was brought away by flood waters after repeated checks which brought a lawsuit at the local Procon. Procon of course favors their citizens and the guy paid me back a dilapidated old appliance that I gave to charity. What麓s the point with warranties in Brazil?
robal
No thanks..........
Purchased a new Brastemp washer (even hot water for small loads) last week. Asked if he worked the warranty, he said no because he never gets reimbursed.
If the "hot water is anything like the showers and sinks heaters, they will last a month.
Today big storms. Half city w/o power. Thinking a gas water heater to mainline, but may not live long enough to use enough water to justify price.
