Have a great time in my country, at +40% off!

Hi again avrooster,

I've spoken to Argentinos and Uruguanos alike and they all suggest exchanging in blue dollar. I definitely intend to do it. They said calle Florida is the place to go! How safe is it though? Cause i've also heard very conflicting views about it!

Gracias de nuevo, Kat

The place mentioned in this hotel review is considered safe:

However, with all the holidays coming up, you MAY find them open only next Friday. They should be open on Monday.

Have a great time in my country, Kat.

Woa! I didn't realize that the black market was observing holidays :) Let's hope that they are open on Christmas day! Thanks again for your help, avrooster!

Try to change on the 26th or, even better, next Monday.

Will do that, thank you avrooster!
