You can spend as much or as little as you wish. With the price inflation at HK you may be hard pressed to keep expenditures under $, but there are far more venues in Tijuana besides HK and your money will go farther. By expenditures I mean the cost of your drinks, the cost of her drinks, the room, her tarifa, etc.
Don't get shitfaced drunk and walk around, don't spend too much time wandering the streets, keep you head on a swivel, get a passport card. Do these and you will be fine. The rateros are there, but they are not beating and killing tourists in broad daylight if you don't hand over every-fucking-thing you own in a split second. Regardless of what some "experts" who watch hundreds of hours of Thailand videos tells you.

Posts: 179Tijuana First-Timer
After spending years in Asia and the Middle East, I'm finally going to Tijuana for the first time this coming September. I'll probably be there for three or four days total. To lead me on my journey, I've started to RTFF. Tijuana has a LOT of information to sort through, but I'm trying to learn as much as I can before I go. In addition to, "don't be a asshole and always treat the ladies nicely", what three things (positive or negative) would you recommend I do or not do? Money is not an issue but I'd like to keep my mongering to around $ per pop so I can maximize the variety.

Now tecnically if you stay more than 7 days it is required. But if you were going for 10 days and you tell them 6 days and don't pay for the 180 pass nobody is going to bust you.

You need to get one if you come to Tijuana regularly to avoid the lines especially on weekends!

Often weekdays they will let you check in early if they have a room available. I have checked in as early as 11:00 am. (Note that I was returning from a night in Ensenada with the HK girl I had taken with me. The clerk took a long look at the clock and a long look back at me, but he gave me the room).
And if you have a VIP card, technically you can stay late, but occasionally I have gotten grief when they reset the locks at 1:00 and asked to have my key recoded.

About half the male CBP will briefly joke with me and give follow-up comments like: "Did you get well serviced?" But the other half of male CBP appear stoic when I give that answer. The stoic half generally make no follow-up questions or comments. This is after about 100 border crossings during the past 14 years.
I have only run into about 4 or 5 female CBP agents at the border when I return to the United States. I give them the same "Spending some time with the chicas" answer. Not one of the female CBP agents has ever joked with me or even given a follow-up question. Every one of the female CBP simply scowled at me, and then quickly moved me along. The reason I have stayed with the same reply all these years is because of the lack of follow-up. My comment pretty much stops any further grilling and gets me on my way quickly.

Posts: 2793Just tell them you went to the doctor. I go all the time and this is my standard answer.
A ticket bet on sporting events. And you have 60 days to cash the ticket. So while as some say it is not illegal to cross the border for pussy. I'm just answering the question with the truth, because I almost always am bringing a ticket back. Over the years I have noticed that this answer seems to always end further questions.
As far as most agents could care less about your visit. One of my funniest CBP moment came the time the dog that looks for people carrying large sums of money hit on my front pocket going into Mexico. The agents got really serious pulled me aside and started questioning me. I reached into my pocket and pulled out a big wad of 1's. The one agent started to laugh and responded we know where you are going with a wink and I was on my way.

Posts: 289Why is it embarrassing to just tell the truth? Just say Hong Kong or Adelitas and they'll just laugh and let you through. If it's a woman she'll just grin or smirk, no big deal. They're not blind, they know why most of us are coming to their country. They'll only start hassling you if you give indecisive answers or act nervous. Nobody cares about your personal activities, they're just nameless people doing their job.
