Inflation is roughly 30%/year, so prices would be outpacing the official currency exchange. If you go to Buenos Aires, do not take money out of an ATM or use your credit cards; bring hard currency and exchange with a private citizen or an unofficial exchange house.
The unofficial rate is tracked daily here, along with blue chip swaps, official rate, etc.:

OMG... the official exchange 1USD=5.55 ARS but the black market rate is UP TO 8.55 !!! that's almost a 50% mark -up !!!
would it make sense it live in BA buying peses on the black market ??? or is the inflation just too damned much ???
It would make sense to live in BA and thrive off the black market. The question is...how will you get away with it?
The gubbmint is going hardcore on catching black market traders. Searches on entry points, money-sniffing dogs, etc.
but are they going to care about small amounts? just enough Greenbacks to get you through a 2-week period?
Not in that situation, it works perfectly. Just make business with known contacts.
I thought you were talking about staying in BsAs long-term and getting a gig as a black market currency exchanger.
