There are 2 ATM machines in San Pedro. One is at the Ivero Travels office, on Caracoles 151-B (on the corner w/ Domingo Atienza), and the other is a mobile, satellite-linked bank truck parked in the plaza, and open 24-hours.
Both accept all kinds of credit cards (Visa, Electron, Cirrus, MC, AMEX, etc.) for drafts (foreign currencies are automatically converted into Chilean pesos: check the rate on the on-screen menu) Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: Ivero Travels office, on Caracoles 151-B (on the corner w/ Domingo Atienza), and the other is a mobile, satellite-linked bank truck parked in the plaza, and open 24-hours.

 Caracoles st. shops by Glospi
Nevertheless, there’s a new indigenous shopping centre, on the E end of Caracoles street, called Galería de los Pueblos Indígenas, established as a response to the plaza’s gallery, which sells local (Kunza and Likan Antai) crafts, such as pottery and woven goods. Check this before the other one at the plaza.
On the practical side, just remember this: EVERYTHING is cheaper anywhere else, so bring with you everything you need (and can).
Especially expensive (3X its average price and more) are batteries (all types), films, videotape, flashlights, gas canisters, blank CD’s, canned and dairy items, wine, beer and other liquours, and water.
Moderately priced -around 2X its average price, but still expensive by Chilean standards- are bread, meat, vegetables, bottled drinks (such as Coca Cola), Internet connection time and car spares.
Postage, phone calls (to anywhere) and fuel are the same price as in the rest of Chile. Leave a Comment Theme: Local CraftAddress: Caracoles street and around (shown in the picture)

Water is cheap, 5l is just as expensive as 1.6l bottles and given you have got an empty 1.6l bottle it may be better to just fill that bottle with a big one.
The rest is reasonably expensive, given the fact you are in a remote place and a tourist spot. Theme: Other
