This whole currency exchange rate sometimes throws me off. It is about Q7.5 for every U.S. dollar. When I buy something here it always seems like it is so expensive, but in reality, it is really very very cheap! For example, Q2.65 sounds like a lot for a bottle of water, but in theU.S. that would just be $ .35!!! Just look at how much some of the stuff I've bought here costs in U.S. dollars:
A banana, a 20 oz. bottle of water, and a gallon of water is Q10.20 = $1.33
1 ginormous banana Q.80 = $.11
2 skirts from the market Q140 = $18.30 (for TWO skirts)
It's amazing!
