You may try the computer shopping mall called Galeria Jardin on Florida street, between Lavalle and Tucuman. I am not sure if you will find a genuine Samsung charger. You may have to settle for a generic one. But those are not too bad. Please take your laptop and the old charger to show them...

Has this textbook theory ever worked in Argentina?

Peso is going down again. It crossed 23 per dollar today. The 40% interest rate could not keep things together for more than 2 days. Govt is now thinking about taking a loan of $30bn USD from IMF...

With the currency being artificially so strong for decades, it is almost impossible to open up competition in any form.

Peso's slide has stopped a bit. Interest rate hiked to 40%. https://www.reuters.com/article/argentina-rate/update-3-argentina-cenbank-jolts-key-rate-to-40-pct-peso-strengthens-idUSL1N1SB0JA A lot can change in the next few hours though.

In other news, investors are not finding Argentina attractive at all. https://www.forbes.com/sites/kenrapoza/2018/05/03/it-might-be-time-to-get-out-of-argentina/ More and more people are talking about the resemblance between the current situation and 2001 disaster (corralito). I am scared.

For a few hours today the official rate was much higher than the blue rate. Probably that's what confused the OP. Peso depreciated 7.8 per cent today and I guess the cuevas didn't keep up.

This. Also I don't know why members in this forum don't talk about food safety and standards that much. With inflation in prices, things can start a race to the bottom.

News from Friday, 23 March 2018. The Justice considered that the DNU was not justified, but also that the changes to the Migration Law are "incompatible with the constitutional and human rights standards"...

Only 4 places ahead of Saudi Arabia(!!). More surprisingly China is #86, behind Libya, Honduras, Pakistan et al. During my short stays in 4 different cities in China a couple of years ago, people in that country seemed to be the happiest in the world. I don't like this ranking.

nikad, in my last few posts in this thread since Dr. bajo_cero suggested database checking for records, I have not once denied the existence of the problem. There is no need to explain the extent of the problem repeatedly. Because I asked a lot of questions, it doesn't mean that they were...

Apologies nikad, but I still cannot get my head around the idea. Are we talking about Jujuy only or all public hospitals in the country? Should they check medical history at borders or immigration records at hospitals? Are we assuming those who want to leech off the system will express their...
