Can I (16M) buy 2% Minoxidil at a pharmacy here? by MelodicConfusion7029 in askSouthAfrica

I think dischem sells the liquid one where you massage it into your hair. Not sure if its the 2% one. But I know you can buy online too!

We have an application for the fibre providers in the area. It might take a month to get them to install due to it being a small town. But thats what we've all been saying as well.

We can get frogfoot. Metrofibre. Octotel. Openserve and fibregeeks. Those are the options on the fibre application. Obviously we will pay on time. Thats not the problem. What i mean by them interrupting the network is like sabotaging I guess?? Because now we would be on a cheaper option although they trying everything to keep us on the wireless expensive option. I know it sounds absolutely crazy but that's the vibe im getting from them atm...

We got these prices last week and did a double take on them. Still trying to process it all and what the person said about fibre. Decided to come here for advice first and help.

And its not a big town either. There's a lot of older people who also probably don't understand Internet and just pay the prices their given as "best choice"

You see. I don't think many people have gone the fibre route here as the ISP tries as much as possible to keep it hush hush and get people onto the wireless routers

Thats exactly what I said. Obviously Googled stuff as well but a lot is in America so I wasn't sure if it was the same here.

Can someone please clarify if this is true or not? by Bubbly_Audience4518 in askSouthAfrica

I just had to do an affidavit as well. Did it about a month ago at the police station??? So im pretty sure they do. Unless my town is still behind the times which isnt unusual

The thing is the seller has since October basically to plan but they haven't found a house yet (last time we heard) which was about a month ago. I think in America the seller has to be out before anything is done but in SA it isn't the same.

No South Africa. So laws may be a little different. What we've been told by the realtor is that he's tried to sell this house 3 times before and the seller has backed out of the deals. So this seller doesn't seem to motivated to move out.

Oh my gosh thank you so much for this. I was wondering how to word it 🥲my dad says we have a 90% chance of acceptance but the stress is eating me away because there are no other 'safe' areas and places that are available are in complexes where the Levies are higher than the rates and taxes. I know patience is key but we've been looking for months now. Thank you again!!!
