I went to price out some Nissan Auto's this morning figuring that since I was there 2 weeks ago and that the Peso was falling I would come back in a couple of weeks and get a reduction since the car's are all priced in US $, So Its only logical that the Dollar sticker priced on windshields would also be down (right) Wrong, the prices are up much higher then before?

When I mentioned this to my wife she Informed me that the Supermarket prices are also going up every day?

It must be nice when you can have it both ways and get away with it!

Only in the DR.

I believe that those businesses that did manage to survive Hippo's reign in terror, took such a beating financially, that they are trying to make up for it now while they can, and that with time, things will level off.
