Montevideo Expat Lunch... Bringing New Friends Together Weekly for Over 4 Years Fellini Ristobaretto, Montevideo: Sunday, August 1, 2010 UPDATE!! Updated meeting time: NOON
By the end of March all the $5 and $10 bills in Uruguay will be out of circulation. Of course the $ is referring to peso and not dollars.
If someone gives you change in the next week or so I'd advise you not to accept the $5 or $10 peso notes. It will be hard to spend them and they are pretty disgusting as well... they practically fall apart in your hands.
The 5 and 10 pesos coins of course are durable and aren't likely to crumble into dust in your fingers.
