Thanks for the inputs fellow mongers!

I did learn a lot from this forum before my first trip, I did use uber in Tijuana, trolley in SD and it did save me money.

Flight was the cheapest I could find (google flights is amazing), these were long flights with hours of break in between in LA as direct flights were expensive.

I did bargain down the BGs 10-20 $ each, but they still are costly.

I do agree that more SGs and less BGs / escorts would be a good option, would try out next time I am there (this weekend).

Seen some roundtrip flights from SFO to SAN next month (Sept) for $111 on Alaska and $125 on United.

I think that you can save a lot of money on the SGs between 200-400 MX pesos. If you already have a room at Cascades try to take the chica there and save dinero. Paying $120 per girl adds up quick. You can cut that down to 1/4 that cost.

Negotiations go a long way in bargaining. Don't go with the first price that is given to you. Always counter with a lower offer. If a chica doesn't make eye contact during negotiations then I wouldn't go with her. Feel her out. Get what you need at a reasonable price.

Using Uber in Mexico is cheaper than a taxi. I got to the border from Zona Norte where the trolley station is for less than 40 MX pesos, like $2 USD.

Use MX pesos in most transactions, not dollars. Most people make the mistake by paying for every single thing in dollars. Either they don't know it or don't care. I think most people don't care, but it affects us directly and indirectly in a negative way. Just like you I want to save money and my practices are to get more back for my buck.

Main problem is bar girls don't work long in bars with regular schedule. Lots of girls would lose money working in HK so they just quit to work on the streets or go home. HK girls used to give DFKs, DATY, tits sucking some even BBF SCIP, but in the last 2 years, none would do it.

In essence BGs are not dong anything extra or feel better in bed than street girls, even if you spend lots of money on fichas over years to become their friends and curry their favors BGs are highly experienced in draining your wallets with the least amount of work and bullshit hehe. The stupid manipulations and game playing by BGs disgust and repulse me.

Street girls tend to work regular schedule over many years. You can usually find your favorite SGs if you know their working time. A lot of street girls are beautiful, nice, sweet, sexy, personable. It's far less expensive to have sex with them. After a few times in bed, they can become friends and give you some hottest sex with love and affection. Some of my best sessions in the world were with the pretty and classy Kenya near Cascada. Unbelievable. A few street girls can be very sincere in wanting friendships with mongers. A few wanted to take me drinking, dancing clubbing after the shift.

You just have to find the girls whom you feel comfortable, loving and affectionate with. They would produce the sexiest sessions.

To MongerHunger.

A few years ago going back from Ensenada, I ran into a Mexican Marines' check point midway between Tijuana and Ensenada, about 2 miles South of Puerto Nuevo. They stopped and checked all cars and buses.

Also heading South on a bus mid way between Ensenada and La Paz, I ran into another Marines check point. A couple armed guys looked at each passenger and arrested an unkempt Gringo, looking like someone on the run from the laws.

But like the Marines patrols in la Zona, they may not be there every day. Good luck.

[Simmer]

Is there any check point stops along the way while heading down to Ensenada?

Only toll booths on the 1 D that I recall.

South of Ensenada I know there are military checkpoints, assuming that's what you mean.

I've been studying costs to make trips to Tijuana a regular thing. My biggest issue is flight cost from where I am at. By no means am I an expert, but I've come to a few conclusions:

Taking Amtrak cuts travel costs in half, but increases time traveling. I looked at San Jose to San Diego, it's around half your flight cost.

I've been studying AirBnB for both San Diego and Tijuana, there are some places in Tijuana that are dirt cheap. There are places in SD, even during weekends that are dirt cheap, but obviously you lose the convenience. That's a bit of a last resort for me personally because of comfort level, but there are some real deals out there. If you feel very comfortable having limited choice then staying at Cascadas on Monday and Tuesday with a VIP card saves you a whopping 48 bucks compared to Friday or Saturday and 36 bucks compared to Sunday, Wednesday, or Thursday.

The biggest savings is focusing on street girls. Imagine you reversed your choices and chose 6 SGs at 25 apiece and 1 BG at 71 to 113, you've saved 250 to 300 bucks. Of course that's a matter of preference. I personally found the street girls very attractive, lucky me, keeps it cheap. I plan to keep Bar Girls at 1 or 2 real diamonds if I can.

Anyhow that's just the stuff I've been running the numbers on. You could easily get your trip from over 870 to under 500. Doesn't sound like a whole lot, but if you budgeted 3000 dollars a year for monger travel that's 6 trips versus 3 trips.

Let me know if you find any cost saving measures.

Does anyone have more inputs on how to make the trips more economical?

Yes. More sessions with street girls and fewer with bar girls / escorts.

I am not including food as I would have paid similar amount staying home for food.

That's about 120 per girl. I could have squeezed couple more girls in the time I was there if I planned things better, so perhaps 90-100 per girl.

Not all sessions were great, but I pay 160-220 for sessions where I live so I don't have much to complain about.

I imagine short visits would be less economical as the flight overhead would be more per girl, unless I am there on business in which case flight cost would be borne by my employer.

Does anyone have more inputs on how to make the trips more economical?

I do envy the mongers who live in SOCAL, so much more convenient and economical to visit Tijuana to enjoy great selection of girls.

[MongerHunger]

Do you mean an actual walker? Or just an alley girl AKA street girl. There is a significant difference as SG are usually managed and organized and are supposed to have health cards whereas walkers are usually drug addicted, many American, that just roam around looking for money for their next fix then disappear.

Hargrow20 has mentioned on numerous occasions in the street walker section about a US walker named Kayla that charges $100 USD minimum for services. I don't know who is paying those prices but he said that he will not.

I got the WiFi password off the desk guy at check in too which was a bonus.

Would you mind pm'ing me the password? I live next door and could REALLY use it if it reaches my room.

THANKS.

Crossed through PedWest fairly late on a Wednesday (closes 10 pm, so maybe 9:30), waved through by the lone guard, no forms. Walked across the bridge to the Arch. Had intended to stay at Chicago's hotel (Jalos) on the basis I'd found a real keeper there last time (June), but 1) She wasn't in evidence in the bar and 2) they didn't have AC in the rooms. So I wound up staying at AC'ed Ibiza again for an extra $5 ($35). I got the WiFi password off the desk guy at check in too which was a bonus.

Didn't really see much I wanted to go with around the Alley, and had a full tank I wanted to break the seal on before I got any beers at the clubs. So I eventually took Celeste outside Playboy / Taco Stand up on her offer of BBBJ. Maybe 300 pesos, don't recall exactly. She was fine, nothing special though, and service wasn't up to the standards you'd get from addicts in big East Coast cities. Also discovered on bringing her back that I'd lost the room key, which was more an embarassment than anything else. Can't figure out how. 100 peso charge for lost key didn't exactly break the bank.

After a 2 x1 beer offer in Chicago where I didn't really find anything to my taste either (not having the room at Jalos I'd been planning didn't help), I wound up in Las Chevelas, and bought a nice shapely lady with a smile a drink, but she didn't really do much to convince me that some time upstairs would be good fun. Moved seats and eventually had a slightly more enthusiastic blonde almost spinner come sit with me and do slightly better. Still no kissing in the bar, which I guess I need to make my benchmark, and she wanted more for her butt, but I decided she seemed OK. In the room (Ibiza is an allowed destination for LC / HK girls, remember), I still didn't get kissing, did go for some DATY as she looked really cute down there, and was definitely keen, and although it's not normally my thing, we had some discussion here recently that perked my interest. I think she liked it. Tried to loosen up her back door ready with a small plug that went in easily enough, and then had a slightly-bigger-but-not-as-big-as-me jewelled stainless plug too, that she claimed she couldn't get in, and my attempts to work it in gently were severely limited. The real thing wasn't penetrating easily either, and had to give up. Boned her a bit vaginally, wasn't doing much for me, and eventually had her suck my balls (pretty good, was expecting significant reluctance to this plan but she went for it well) to get me there. Never got her name, couldn't understand what she said. She kept the stainless plug (couple of bucks from eBay), if I see her again I'll enquire if she's actually managed it.

After a bit more wandering around the zona, I finally accepted the begging of a slightly older but reasonable looking lady opposite Playboy who claimed she'd do what I wanted. As usual, the reality wasn't all it could have been, was reluctant to even give BBBJ too begin with and took quite some convincingto follow through on her promises earlier. Good English though, enjoyed talking to her.

Afterwards I sat down in Chicago with a lady with nice big balloons who'd tried to get me to buy her a drink beforehand, and watched the stage show of by now mostly drunk chicas, who had lost inhibitions from earlier. It was pretty good fun. I went and slept a while then.

Next morning I couldn't find anything very appealing either, took Joanna ina nice purple dress from opposite HK as she offered up her backdoor for 600 pesos. Enjoyed her and blew a load in raincoat up her butt in mish. Went and had Huevos Rancheros in a place in the market next to the Big Church on Ninos Heroes. Suspect I got charged the Gringo price though. Then went to Mamut brewing on 3rd and had a beer sampler enjoyed on their nice balcony location. Price much better than the US, of course. Crossed back through PedWest maybe 3 pm or so. No waiting. No questions, either.

Overall, much less impressive than my last visit, where I had 2 girls I basically hit it out the park with.

[LovesToSploog]

Why would anybody pay that much for a HK puta? Tops, I pay 1400 pesos.

Yeah it was a huge mistake, I should have walked out after my required drinks (3 shots of tequila or 5 beers minimum, I chose 3 tequila shots), being that it was my last night, I was buzzed, horny, and the girl was pretty good looking. She was tight, like you could feel the stretch when you first put it in. Nonetheless, I only do booty clubs at Tijuana just because the price is so much lower due to competing businesses.

[TomJackin]

since a HK girl will cost you about 3000 pesos for 30 minutes.

One street walker is asking for $100 USD minimum.
