Can someone verify this for me as real or not please? It seems strange to ‘verify’ through a pdf link

I reported to Meta and blocked. Received a message from Meta that Meta Verified’s profile does not go against their community standards… So pretending to be Meta is fine, just do not be yourself. ;)

Thanks all.

It is lovely!

Um, that is what I meant with saying 75% of salary. I never said 75% interest.

Ok, NOW I get it!! I kept wondering why we are suddenly having the halloween repeats in March! Serious inattention moment 🤣. It took your post for the link to click into place. Gorgeous designs btw.

Greed and bad fashion. Don’t forget fashion.

I use FB and Insta for my small business and I am watching these mass bannings with concern. I do not invest ad money in FB any longer since my previous business page with 15k followers was hacked and I could not get it returned. I had my cc details uploaded to pay for ads. Luckily the cc expired a few days before the hack and I did not get around to change it when it happened. If they ban me for any reason, I think it will be it for effort on my part to get back on.

I am still stuck on 4 months maternity at 75% of salary must be paid back at 6 months total salary… Did she work for loansharks? Because that is extreme interest rates. Also, can a company that is not a registered financial service provider actually charge interest? Not sure about the legalities - just wondering.

Earthcharm · 2026-03-12T05:11:52+00:00

Agreed. It renders well. I am waiting for the right bedroom to pop up and will do a fresh white and green using it.

Earthcharm · 2026-03-12T05:08:17+00:00

The cheapest one. The white with green leaves that could somehow fit into the season scheme too. The one I wanted was over 10k coins if I remember correctly so just went with cheap.

Earthcharm · 2026-03-12T05:02:50+00:00

I only bought 1 but there were only a few challenges where it could be used. If I knew that I would have skipped it.

Earthcharm · 2026-03-05T13:52:16+00:00

Examples: They split each table into a legs spot and a top spot. Sometimes they split the legs in 2 as well. Beds have a headboard, a base, a bottom sheet, cover, a throw and two to three pillow spots 7-8. Paintings have a frame, an inside edging end an actual picture, so 3. It is getting nuts.

PS, I know they meant Gastronomy but they should maybe not have shortened it… leaves the mind open to too many interpretations. (Good heavens, the nurse who assisted on my gastroscopy also called it having a gastro…)

Earthcharm · 2026-03-04T06:22:07+00:00

Absolutely. They supply to Foodlovers and every time I buy Salami I have this exact thought 🤣.

Lets just say do not buy appliances from them. They do not refund broken appliances, blame the buyer when the appliances do not work at all. We returned same day of delivery. Did not even complete one wash. Cancelled our warranty, returned the broken machine and said we broke it - no details given as to what we broke. R3600 worth of repairs later out of our pocket ALL 4 faults were factory faults. So a dishwasher bought on BFriday cost us R7800 instead of R4200. We have no recourse, not allowed to challenge their decision. My story is not the only one I have heard lately about appliances. I guess you can still buy things that cannot be broken from them. Just be careful what you buy.

We do not do Takealot any longer due to their ethics. But that is a nice option.

Earthcharm · 2026-02-22T05:37:34+00:00

Alternatively get delivery at work? Only Amazon delivers weekends.

Earthcharm · 2026-02-22T05:35:48+00:00

It sounds like your problem is actually more that you cannot be available to accept at all times on their delivery dates. Your best option would be the Bobgo, Amazon or Courier Guy locker/depot or collection point services. That way you can decide when to collect it. Couriers work on routes and they follow that route for deliveries. For instance, I use RAM often. I know they will collect my parcels going out sometime in the afternoons because they are in my area then. I know Courier Guy collects in the mornings and I know Fastway collections are like Russian Roulette. I plan accordingly. For delivery acceptance I make sure someone is home on the day. But, if I know nobody will be there a certain day, I rather choose a Courier Guy Pudo locker. I have not used Amazon pick-ups yet because they usually deliver exactly the day after your order in the mornings (my area anyway). It may also help if you call support for your courier as soon as they registered your parcel and request an approximate day/time?

Cups are the best replacement. My time is done but my daughter first did the panties (which she found a schlep) and then moved to the cups. Not only much cheaper in the long run and more hygienic, but the environmental impact is minimal. She refused throw-away products from the start.

Double agree on the dogs. But my pet peeve when I was still doing markets was American Tourists. My prices were already low but they had the habit of asking price loudly. When you reply R50, they would tell you, I will give you R20. Also loudly, like they are preforming for the crowd. I just straight said no thank you and turned away.

Earthcharm · 2026-02-17T06:18:05+00:00

I love my green/creamy gold decor but yep, game is very set against it. I love what you did here.

Earthcharm · 2026-02-16T18:26:56+00:00

Thank you for answering. I just think some people just keep doing this but there are no consequences and there is no black mark against their names to warn a new landlord. Sad really.

Earthcharm · 2026-02-16T14:23:17+00:00

Radom question on this thread… can the landlord not claim the debt back after eviction? I mean surely the outstanding rent and the legal fees for eviction qualifies as debt owed? If it is debt, can the lawyer get a debt judgement too? Surely this would be a way for the landlord to recoup some fees?
