If you’re from Uruguay

or have visited the country,

your wallet has surely felt it.

A recent study has stated

it is not only the most

expensive country in Latin America,

but also one of the most expensive

in the world.

When the prices of about 600 products

were compared between Uruguay and

43 other countries,

Uruguayan products were on average

27% more expensive.

They cost more than double

than what they do in Bolivia,

80% more than in Mexico,

and 20% more than neighboring

Brazil and Argentina.

They were even more expensive than

countries like France, Germany, or the United Kingdom.
