Also 17% of the entire country decided it's better to uproot their life and move abroad as the original post of this thread makes reference to

Sales aren't really sales in Argentina generally, they're often just marketing gimmicks where companies raise the prices, then put items "on sale" during specific periods, yet people can't tell the difference because of inflation and the general overcharging of companies. The best you can...

In other news, water wet; more at 11:00. I was in the US again this month and wanted to take pictures of tons of stuff at Target because it was cheaper, better quality, and of course, in stock. In the end we got the country many of us on the forum assumed we'd get: Dollarized Prices with...

I think why so many people, Argentine or foreign living here are unhappy with the state of affairs in Argentina is because we have the worst of both worlds: developing country salaries/instability/inflation/poverty/etc. yet developed country prices for food, electronics/consumer goods, home...

Wait, you're telling me Milei's Freikorps are basically a horde of feminist hating young men? I'm shocked as to why so few women are interested in joining such a group... Joking aside, I seriously don't understand people (whether it's these losers or the Campora) that base their entire...

The only places where pollution are a major issue that I've been to are the villas next to the Rio La Matanza/Riachuelo, the Sarandi/Santo Domingo Canals, and near the high way exit to Bernal I think. The first 3 are due to pollution and run off in to the rivers caused by the lack of proper...

Ok, cool, don't let the door hit you where the lord split you

I should hope so, the man can't speak English, which I find hilarious considering how much the Mileistas make fun of Ks for the same thing

Anywhere/any merchant; the determining factor isn't the merchant or country of origin, it's the company responsible for clearing Aduana here in Argentina: Letter mail/USPS/Correo Argentino/EMS - these shipments enter via the "puerta a puerta" system, and it's plagued with delays (often 60+)...

Ellos van a intentar evitar darte bola based on your age alone. They'll either straight up ignore your requests for a quote, or make up a differential cuota based on baseless math that will be ridiculously expensive as a means of discouraging your affiliation, think like 800K or something a...

So, I've used the courier system several times and with different companies. I'll try to explain things as I understand them, and based on my experience. What's new/what's the same: Changes currently apply only to purchases made via couriers such as DHL, UPS, Tiendamia, Aerobox, etc. NOT via...

Next on the list: every other President, otherwise it's all for show (which we already know it is, LLA was suspiciously quiet about Better Call Saul's privileges)

Understandable seeing as Dear Leader believes Global Warming is a communist hoax after all.

It would help if you mentioned which country you're from. For example, if you're Haitian or Senegalese you'll have a much easier time immigrating here than if you're from Pakistan let's say, despite all 3 country's citizens requiring a visa.

I live here and the amount of money I would charge the Argentine state for a loan would be usurious, but maybe I'm just risk adverse. Fool me 9 times... won't get fooled again. (If you know, you know 🤠)

Libertarian Lingchi - death by a thousand cuts Milei is sold in the media as a man simply looking to tackle inflation, but he is a pure ideologue; if he can kill public education, healthcare, infrastructure, etc. at the same time he will because he earnestly believes these things should be...

What, you don't like the man with the sister version of an Oedipus complex?

Reminds me of And the Money Kept Rolling In (and Out): When the money keeps rolling in, you don't ask how... When the money keeps rolling out you don't keep books... My personal guess is that everyone close to Milei and Caputo know that this isn't sustainable, and as such the plan is to...

The macroeconomy is in a bad spot, yet Milei and Caputo can't stop congratulating each other because they drink their own Kool Aid. We've reached the perfect storm of Milei retaining Peronist capital controls (VLLC), the dollar being artificially cheap due to the BCRA interventions in the forex...

Inbound tourism nose dived 20% YoY and it appears to be directly related to how expensive in dollars Argentina is https://www.memo.com.ar/economia/cae-el-turismo-extranjero-por-el-encarecimiento-del-dolar-en-argentina/
