I live in Cuba, and after COVID and a series of failed economic measures, this is the price of these services.
Mobile data internet: (cheapest plan) 110 CUP = 0.34 USD (1.4GB)
Home Internet (cheapest plan) 300 CUP = 0.94 USD 40 hours
Haircut 150 CUP = 0.47 USD
Coffee (cheapest) 50 CUP = 0.16 USD
Gasoline 132 CUP = 0.41 USD
Large pizza 500 CUP = 1.56 USD
Anyone would say that it is wonderful to live with these prices, but the reality is that the average salary in Cuba, not to mention the minimum, is 4648 CUP = 14.53 USD using the informal currency market rate. You don't have to be a mathematician to know that it is one of the most expensive places in the world.
