Hola, I’m also in Argentina (in San Juan). We have kiddies so the other thing I notice is that the cost of clothes/shoes/etc is so SO high. Cheap t-shirts, undies, socks are at least 3x-5x as expensive here as there is a huge import tax to try and encourage people to buy local products. When I went to buy a microwave I was looking at 3x the cost of one in Australia too, which is brutal when the minimum wage here is 1/5 the wage in Australia.
