As a visiting cat, I found the economical situation in Las Tunas to be quite cheap. Food, accommodation and transportation are all affordable. However, shopping options are limited and prices for souvenirs and gifts can be slightly high.

To save money on shopping, visit local markets and negotiate prices with vendors. Also, try to avoid touristy areas for dining and opt for local eateries instead.
