Go check out LaBoca. The tourist area is great. But take a reliable cab there. The tourist area itself is decent, its where tango was born, but the surrounding neighbourhood is a bit rough. As long as you tell the cabbie to take you to "la zona tourista de san telmo" you will be fine. Also really nice is Recoleta. Lots of good shopping there as well.
A great mall right downtown is Galerías Pacífico (pacific galleria). Great shopping and really cheap. (well not for argentines but its cheap for us).
***IMPORTANT**** Even if you have the right of way when crossing the street, NEVER assume a car will stop for you. Always look to see who is coming even on cross streets because even when they turn and u are in the intersection they dont stop for pedestrians. This has only ever been an issue for me in Argentina. If you hurry across and watch out for cars u will be fine.
im not sure about clubs during the week. You will definately find some clubs and bars but the big ones have their nights on friday and particularly saturday.
TAKE A JACKET BECAUSE ITS WINTER THERE AND ITS USUALLY PRETTY COLD IN AUGUST. Averages about a high of 10-15 right now. remember that Buenos aires is roughly the same disatance south of the equator as Washington DC is north so they do get winter there.
If you want i will contact a friend of mine who lives there and maybe he will agree to show you around Buenos Aires.
If you have any more questions let me know.
