No, I'm in Bogota right now, and I was living in Sao Paulo last year. If anything prices are higher in Bogota.

Have prices in Argentina, converted to dollars actually increased?

I was also in Santa Cruz earlier this year, it's not really comparable to any of the major cities in Latin America, of course it is cheaper, but you get what you pay for.

well, there is no more black exchange rate for dollar in argentina and inflation is kind of getting out of control, so yeah dollar prices increased a lit. of course, SCZ is not comparable with BOG and BA or RJ/SP
