I see it as, what all multinationals did....raise it until you find the line people won't cross....then run promos to get them back.

If you know Jr or Rodolfo, neither are keeping spreadsheets and doing analysis on sales trends,  expenses and amortization of capital expenses and per guest cost vs net profit  🤓

I know they do not do it and I know you cannot compare the resources and options a multinational has to the local small business reality. And yet, I think you are thinking from your wallet and with no idea on how to run a (small) business when inflation in a month is higher than the annual inflation in most countries, developed or not. 

But anyway, let's agree on disagreeing here.

One more thing, to the friends who give advice to Brazilians on how to run their business. I may be wrong, but I bet you have no idea on how to run a business when inflation is running crazy. The causes of inflation are in the policy makers decisions, not in the business owners' behavior, they just have to adapt to survive. 

are you saying Brazil went through 100% inflation in 2024?

Google search tells me Brazil inflation is 5% in 2024 

Nobody will be against a healthy price adjustment around 15% each year to match with inflation 

Good for you that you do not have to worry about your wallet

For those who wants their money worth, hiring from garoto com local might be more economical. Even if they charge 400/hr (one of my regular charges 200/hr standard for everyone). Its an hour with gozar minus the entrance, drink and suite fees. 

I believed I saw a poster last week at 117 that the suite was 40 (not sure if its an old poster)

there is also a love motel right across 117 which I visited once in 2024.

It is 160R for 4 hours, facility is better than 117.

it starts making more sense to use motel with your regular
