A simple question or two..?
  1. What is the Exchange Rate you get when you purchase something in BA with a US credit Card?
  2. Or the Exchange for a peso extraction at ATM 's in BA ?
I read that the duty free at Ezeiza sell imports at Official Dollar Rate $82 ? chocolates and other perishables 4x1 fire sale to reduce stock accumulated for last 7 months.. Long lines seen..!

In both cases, I got the official dollar rate. Would be around eighty pesos now. Haven't charged anything here in a long time.
 
Good old Macri days when I was actually using credit card everywhere and credit card rate was better than blue
 
The currency guessing game:
1- For a while, last year, it was better to exchange dollars at a regular bank than at a cueva.
2- The blue dollar just went from $189.45 last Friday, to $169.40 today.

Argentina....! Never a dull moment.
 
Down to $167 yesterday. Read that the dollar generally goes down at the end of the month, when employers need pesos to meet their payrolls.
