Maybe the blue-party is over.
Till Chiquiloft will come back. (maybe in Caracas, la Paz o La Habana).
I hope, we will get back to economy, not low-end speculation en "cuevas".

Banco de la Nacion is showing the dollar at 12.8 today. I called my guy and he quoted 13.7 on a 1000.

Called my Citi CC today. With no foreign exchg fee, any charges for today will have a rate of 0.0761 pesos per USD. Therefore:
1.00 USD = 13.1270 ARS.
US Dollar ↔ Argentine Peso.
1 USD = 13.1270 ARS 1 ARS = 0.0761789 USD.
Mid-market rates: 2015-12-20 14:31 UTC.
Too early to start using card. Disco supermarket offered 13 to 1 for cash purchase.
They are all playing it safe.
Maybe members can post other examples - restaurants, hotels, etc..

New Argentina President Macri has allowed the Peso to float on the open market. Its now at 13 to 1 US dollar. Yesterday it was 9.7 to 1. We will see how far it goes.

Posts: 125Just a thought
Unless he has backtracked incoming president Mecri has stated that he will remove restrictions on foreign currency purchases. My thoughts have been that this will increase the pesos to the dollar at the official rate. So what happens to the blue rate. I'm wondering if the official rate shows a dramatic increase in pesos to dollars and the blue rate initially stays the same but their goal is to bring the two rates closer together and eventually have the two rates the same.

He gave me $14.60 to 1. Good enough. I had just finished a walking tour of BA and we had walked about 8 miles.
I'm sure you could find a better rate but it was a tiny amount and when I talked to him and thought about his situation I could not think of a more deserving individual.
He gave me the pesos and I told him that I didn't even need to count it but he insisted.
He had overpaid me. Of course I gave him the difference and asked him for his Whatsapp info.

Sorry in advance if this a dumb question. Is it possible to exchange money on Sundays on Calle Florida? I will be in BA briefly on a Sunday, then have to catch a bus to Patagonia on Sunday evening.

Posts: 707FYI: Xoom has changed its Argentine peso dollar exchange rate benchmark.
Today the rate is 15.04. It is a better rate than they were using in the past. The green venta (sale) rate on dolarblue.net today is 15.10.
Also if your friend is heading to Paraguay for the holidays, I was told (I cannot substantiate this for fact) that they can receive the transfer in dollars from Xoom in that country.
