can I use a print out as I do not want to tour around with a passport in hand.
When I've been asked for an ID to pay by (USA) credit card in stores, I've just shown my (USA) passport card rather than the passport itself, which stays in my hotel room safe in Buenos Aires.

For example, I've noticed that supermarkets tend to require everyone paying with plastic to show an ID card, so it's not just foreigners.
