    Yes it does knottydredd.

    And DR may never see 50 - 1 ever again but you still are getting more bang for your buck than you do in NYC.

    I thought I was the man when I got a chick down from 300 to 150 in NY. Said she had to pay her rent. So DR prices are still good in my book. The stories of those 50-1 were so memorable to read. I'll never see it, but I loved the stories.

    It needs to be 46.00. Whenever I leave the street guys, I'm leading them in a chant "46! 46! 46!". It's a funny thing to see...they all participate!

    Im hoping it goes up a bit for my trip but with my luck it will be 25:1. No big deal I suppose I am budgeting for the current rates so if it goes up its just a bonus.

    28.00 again this morning, in the streets, Super Super, and other cambio places. Uh, I don't know what you guys are talking about, but 28.00 SUCKS!!

    It translates into paying the same or more for food and other stuff than I pay at home. One of the DR's many selling points is it's cheapness. New York is more expensive than where I'm from, so I guess this is from my personal perspective.
