Mexican Pesos Declined AB & HK 4 Others
[QUOTE=Sgt Perv]I have not spent USD in TJ Mexico since my first visit in 2000 and then only the first day.
At that time, it was more to blend into the culture than to save money.
Now it is also to save some money.
I have NEVER EVER been told no to my pesos in the baja area.
Bargaining does vary but never no to pesos.
No chica in the zona has ever refused pesos from me.
I have never heard of any other monger being refused his pesos.
Yes bars do prefer USD for higher profit.
I have right now about 800 pesos from my last trip because I know I am going back. If not , which would suck, I can always exchange them in the US at almost any large city currency exchange.
Sound7 seems to like promoting the spending of USD, not sure if he just does not know or has some type of financial interest in the zona or looking to argue.[/QUOTE]Recently a shared ride fare was 23 pesos and I offered two dollars. The driver refused and asked for one more dollar. A total request for three dollars. I paid him in pesos 23. A dollar is more than 3 pesos.
Drinks : Peso or dollars. (AB/HK)
Transportation: Peso or dollars
AB/HK 4 Others: Mexican Pesos declined
