    Now the Subte can be paid with Cards and Phones

    In Paris they don't support cards and phones, so even on some first world countries it hasn't been adopted yet.

    Now the Subte can be paid with Cards and Phones

    Who knows. I've been in London for the past two weeks and they have a similar thing to a Sube card, plus tickets plus Cards and Phone. Most probably the same thing will happen in BA: The Sube card will still exist and will be cheaper than paying with credit / debit cards.

    What happens if Argentina gets too expensive? What are alternative cities/countries to move to when it's overpriced in Argentina?

    That's what I'm spending in Europe for a meal + 1 cup of wine in a nice restaurant.

    Chileans are a bit 'cheaper' or less expensive. But in general they are all overpriced.

    I don't wanna know! XD, I usually buy a cup in restaurants and they are around 10 US$. Next time you go to Colombia get some good wines from the Free Duty Shop.

    High class ppl I guess. Since they don't produce they import, so you can find wines from all over the world. Last time I checked prices before my trip to Europe they were giving a lot of discounts % and 3x2. I believe is pure speculation, same with red meat.

    Supermarkets. I think is insanely high, what's the Mercosur for???

    It's also a sign that store owners are speculating with prices. Also in Colombia, a country attached to Mercosur, this very same wine is between 40 US$ and 50 US$. Makes no sense.
