sticker shock on the price of beer and cigarettes


Trust me that it's a WHOLE lot better for us Americans down there now than it was a few years ago. When I was there five years or so ago a few rounds of beer cost almost as much as I paid for my first car. Now that the dollar has gotten a lot stronger it's almost affordable, two months ago the beer only cost me about twice what it does in the U.S.
