For context inside Santiago itself: of the 16 things we price here, haircut carries the widest visitor markup (CLP 5000–10000 locally against CLP 12000–25000), while metro ride is priced most consistently across the city. Sopaipilla (each) sits closer to the problem end of that scale, so it is worth checking before you buy.
Prices across Chile move together, so the habits that keep you at CLP 500–1000 in Santiago will hold in the next city too: check a posted price, walk one street away from the main draw, and pay the way residents pay.
