I get my last check from work on Friday, I'll head to the bank and try. Do I have to use a bank or if they're "out" can I go to another branch/not my bank/exchange house? I'll let everyone know if/how I get them.

So it has been approved? Great! I wasn't sure if it did or just said they received the application.

While living here I've numerously asked "Argentine time or American time/Argentine XX:XX AM/PM or American XX:XX AM/PM?"

Hi All, As you know I'm leaving Argentina and decided to give it a chance an apply for dollars from AFIP. I filled out the application, submitted it, and when I go to consultations in the Consulta de Operaciones Cambiarias - COC: VIAJES AL EXTERIOR section and this now what I'm able to see...

I feel bad for old Rob, I'll likely end up volunteering and voting for Olivia Chow, all signs point to her sweeping I'm thankfully.

Hey! I was gonna PM just now! I have the fan for you yes. I'll be leaving late next week possibly if my friend that's lending me the money can get things figured out tomorrow. I've found a ticket for 11,000 ARS but the travel agency needs to confirm the booking tomorrow, otherwise the next...

If you're going to Toronto try TD Canada Trust (the Green banks) or this place on Carlton Street. hell, he even has ARS last time I went there: http://www.collegecurrency.ca/ He's at 25 Carlton Street (less than a block East of Yonge and Carlton/College, subway station right there) You'll get...

http://youtu.be/92gP2J0CUjc?t=1m32s Well, although this is true, I will say that Canada v.s Argentina, weather and interestingness aside, it's better in Canada. I need stability to save up in dollars and that just isn't possible here in Argentina. lol Thanks! I'm thinking Australia once I...

Don't waste your time, you can exchange USD for CAD anywhere in Canada or just pay in USD if you want. When I was working in Toronto I used to do it all the time and had customers that did the same

Humbled by the experience of living in Buenos Aires for over year, I, ARbound, am now Torontobound. Part of saying goodbye is figuring out how to leave, and since you guys are the experts on anything Argentina for expats, perhaps for the last time I have a question that needs answering. I've...

Well, Shakespeare said "The evil that men do lives after them," I worry that the same will be true when Cristina hands over the reigns reluctantly. We still live with things put in place by Nestor and the numerous Presidents and Generals before him, perhaps the biggest cancer that metastasized...

Skimmed it, tried Googling for confirmation of authenticity, nothing. I think this whole situation is best summed up with this picture:

It's open season out there, it's a double plot meant to distract from the refugees at the Border and to make Russia look bad. I'm surprised RushBo/Alex Jones/RT/Rebels haven't already said this was done by Obama. Here is some more BS being spread by the people that shot them down...

Yes, I too hate those napkins. Reminds me of the one-ply toilet paper you'd find in restaurant restrooms. You can basically see through it and it's got some sort of resin on it, like a wax sort of of. Also reminds me of wax paper.

Nepotism isn't even a bad word in Argentina. I think most are surprised, like me, that she wasn't already superglued to the government teat.

The Boeing 777 is one of the world's safest aircraft, I really have to doubt after what happened earlier this year that something mechanical would go wrong/over looked. It was flying at 30,000 ft and most crashes occur during take off and landing which makes me assume based on the evidence so...

Don't worry, Clarin and other sites will always be available, just edited for Argentine consumption.

I'm too lazy to check, but didn't Joe post about ISIS praising Arge for beating Iran on their twitter feed? Maybe Joe is really a triple agent, playing the NSA/CIA, Argentina, and ISIS off of each other while surely filling his mansions in Patagonia, Langley and the Levant with fugazzetas, iPad...

I was saving this for Matias: es una conspiración.
