Hi,
well it's been ages since I bought some bread. The pesos are Argentine
Pesos.
And a meal in a restaurant (not a fancy, once a month one, but a good solid
restaurant for entrance - one dish - dessert - soda or wine - not self
service but waiter) might be 15 pesos (5 Dollars), and a movie ticket will be
7 pesos (2.30U$). Renting an apartment, 2 rooms and kitchen, is about 700
pesos (230 U$), and a house with garden and swimming pool will go up to 1200
pesos a month (400U$).
So you see, it's really unexpensive if you talk dollars.
Cheers
Ricardo
