I'm going to be in Medellin in a few weeks. Last time I went I got bored because I thought the action would be around parque lleras, and I'm not up for bothering with the fb thing or the Mansion. Centro by day, and Mayorista by night are in my sights now. What surprises me is its almost never mentioned in this thread despite Mayorista being so close to El Poblado.

Posts: 4034It's the relative pace of progress. In regions where there are no supermarkets, the wait to buy the same goods is even longer because the buyers and sellers socialize and haggle during the transaction. In a more developed country like Hong Kong or Singapore, check out clerks can complete each transaction without asking questions that their Latin American counterparts have to ask:
- do you need a copy of your receipt?
- are you a member of our buyer's club?
- what is your telephone number?
- do you need a tax receipt?
- should I divide the total for you?
- is this a credit card or a debit card?
- what are the last 4 digits of the account number?
Honestly, I've purchased real estate with fewer conversations.

1 cash register open, 4 to 5 other employees standing strategically about the store for stock-loss prevention.
I go 3 blocks away to the TiendaD1 across from Parque Bolivar on Carr49 and it's empty, no line. The other one is right between 2 subway stations though.
So tip, if staying in Hotel Botero or close, walk to Parque Bolivar to shop.

I felt just the opposite, I loved their clubs, I was in 4 clubs in Centro- Barre Ejecutiva & Maracibo, Conijetas & Grille Nueva Avenida. (last one is next door to Conijetas) No cover, cheap drinks, enough cute chicks. Hey I only need one and their was 3+ hot ones each time in Ejecutiva & Conijetas, didn't pull from the other 2 places. Looked to be close to 50 girls at Conejitas on the Sat night I was there. And BE had 3 hotties on a Monday night!
Unlike the street girls or Casa girls I could sit and have a drink with a few girls and see who seemed more cool / sweet / into it / fun and who seemed a stone cold bit*h. (I suppose you could have a drink 1st with the street girls but it might cost more then the session. LOL) Added bonus seeing them semi-naked on stage for further examination. 50,000 club fee to leave. $16?
Much better for me then 12 girls walking by me in a Casa and I have to pick based on looks alone, less likely to find chemistry for the TLN girl that way especially.

Sometimes I ask a girl if she will stay at least as long as it takes to check out at a grocery store just to know she will be with me for an hour or two.

Posts: 10Visiting Medellin
I'll be in Medellin from April 7 to April 23 so anybody can PM me if they wish to contact me for whatever.
About cell phones: I went to Claro in a Mall around San Diego, Medellin last December, bought a phone and sim no problem with my passport. Get the phones at a big Claro, etc. Mega center and have them do all the work setup or adding minutes. Its better than buying a phone at a Bodega.
About prepagos, excellent posts in the last few pages! One of the funnest things in the world is to have a stunning beauty in bed and you are all over her while she answers the phone and its her boyfriend and she speaks like she is at the Mall. Prepagos see their sex work as normal work, so calling a boyfriend from another man's bed is just like you calling your wife from the office. If a guy just pays the prepago and respects her it will be fine in most cases. Its when a gringo chooses to pry into her personal business or to get closer to her that all the problems for the gringo start. Many beautiful prepagos work only daytime hours so you wonder what they do at night. Probably not Bible study or puzzle building.

Between the supermarkets and phone stores Colombians must spend a third of their days waiting in lines.

Can't you buy SIM cards with Data plans like in Panama from a Vending machine.
