    Protest Against Milei’s Move to Scrap Film Institute, INCAA

    Wasn't Andrea Del Boca paid lots of money by Christina for movies that failed? I'm only posting this from memory as I've never seen a film with her in it.

    Restaurants in Palermo

    Easiest way to deal with what appear to be out of control prices in many restaurants is don't eat there.

    Price of meat will skyrocket

    Just a price update from Publix supermarkets in Miami/Ft Lauderdale to compare with prices here. Wine prices aren't indicative of what's available here but the lest expensive wine I saw was around $8 US.

    Western Union money transfer

    I jumped on that rate: Dec 27 I sent money for pickup here and got 961. Today's rate was, as you posted, -1265. For $200 US dollars that's about 60,000 MORE pesos in just a few weeks then from Dec. Thanks for the post!

    Western Union money transfer

    Actually even a 5,000 peso bottle of wine translates to US $5. So drinking a bottle of $5 wine in the US is indeed cheap. However it's never too early to drink the fruit of the vine! Nampe here is around 1350 a bottle; hence $1.35 US. That is indeed cheap.

    Western Union money transfer

    WU rate unchanged since Friday (although another Federal holiday in U.S. yesterday so all financial activity at a standstill). I'll check the rate after about 17:00 today to see if it changed.

    I don't know where you buy your tuna at but the standard size can is nowhere near 3,000 pesos.

    The Central Bank approved 10k and 20k peso bills

    My comment was directed at the printing of larger bills as a tacit surrender to inflation, as in Venezuela. Other than that and a common language, the 2 are vastly different counties. Seems lots of Venezuelans come to Argentina but few, if any Argentines go there.
