Interesting

The govt is going to allow foreign tourists to sell up to U$5.000 at the “blue” rate. Uruguay did something clever. You can get a Master Card prepaid card in dollars and as you use it they discount your peso purchases from the card at the CCL rate, which sometimes is even higher than the “Blue”.

The above is a message from a friend in BsAs

The story is developing does anyone on the ground have any other information?
