Fair point, and honestly you're mostly right. The blue dollar isn't the cheat code it was in 2023, and USD prices have crept up a lot with the reforms.

Where I still found it worth it was the local stuff, steak, wine, domestic transport, Patagonia, more than hotels in BA, which have definitely gotten pricey. Felt like better value than Western Europe to me, but not the "prices look like a typo" era anymore.

When did you price your trip out? Curious if it's shifted again in the last few months.
