[Sgt Perv]

Hello, gentlemen. Well it looks like we are hanged up on dollar vs peso conversions, all is good but I guess we are forgetting this as sex post. Although is great we all share our points of view on how to spend our hard earned dough we also need to get back on subject.

I asked how much, she says $200 pesos, 2 positions, $50 for BJ, and $50 nude, we go upstairs pay $5 for the room,.................. Total damage US$35, plus a $3 tip. And to think I was one of the suckers that spends $300+ at HK. I can kick my self. See ya later fellas.

Great report Xxnegrito !!

This brings up to point what we have been talking about.

1) Sounds like she was offering her services for 300 pesos (USD $22.50) and you paid her USD $30. This is why we talk about using pesos.

2)$300 plus dollars in HK, is why I praise the paraditas. Clubs drain your wallets and paradita drain your nuts.

Not to be just a dick and throw salt into a wound but had you used pesos in HK with just 8% exchange discount (USD $24 = 310 pesos), your paradita would have been free.

We are not "just" talking about using pesos, we are "really" talking about getting more sex

Regardless of all that, it sounds like you had a great time.

In the handful of times I've been to TJ, the best exchange rates I've found have been in a little casa de cambio over on Heroes los Niños at about 3rd Av. (I only use it during the day!). On the US side, two exchange houses on the N side of Via San Ysidro have higher rates than the others. I've found that by stopping there before going over the border, I can get a 3–5% bonus or so--not bad if you're exchanging $250US for a handful of days of mongering.

I find the best place to convert $ to pesos is in San Ysidro, On San Ysidro Bl at the Western Union, the green building, on the west side of the street. Always a litle bit better rate. Usually a line.

So just divide everything by 10 right?

$1 coin/10 ≈ .1 dollars or 10 US cents
$5 coin/10 ≈ .5 dollars or 50 US cents

$20 bill/10 ≈ 2 US dollars
$200 bill/10 ≈ 20 US dollars

Correct?

Close enough for government work.

BY George FJL you've got it. Now keep in mind that the exchange rate is a little better than that as if you're giving a girl a 200 peso bill you're not giving her 20 dollars USD you're actually giving her the equivolent of about 15.44 USD which is a 4.66 cent savings. I fucked a hot little paradita my last time in the zona for 200 pesos.....I have to tell ya...fucking a chick for less than 16 bucks can't be done here in the states unless you're damn fucking smart and find a ****...not a ***** LOL.

For negotiations with the chicas that is how you think with pesos. Remember to always talk in peso terms. You are on your way to savings.

[Efjayel]

OK. Try to pay attention. There will be a test.

You will never see a coin that has a cent sign. Centavos are very rare, as they are worthless.

The Peso sign looks like a $ sign. Technically, the dollar sign has 2 vertical lines, and the Peso only one.

So, the coins will say $10, $5 or $2 (or, the little silver ones say $1. Use these for the chiclets. $1 per package).

The paper bills say $20, $50, $100, $200, $500, $1,000. I think there are larger bills, but you will probably never see one larger than $500 from a cambio. Mostly $100 and $200. The $200 bills work great with the SGs.

Mentally divide the number of pesos by 10 to get an approximate dollar equivalent. This works fine for most bar girls and street girls. The bars will calculate the peso price of drinks based upon a pre-set exchange rate. Right now it's around 12:1. You should get almost 13:1 on the street, so you'll be a little bit ahead when you pay for drinks with pesos.

I haven't reported in a long time mostly because I been so stupid and fell for on of the chicas at HK, and it cost me dearly, most of my mongering funds I had saved up. Live and learn I guess although am old enough to know better, any who.

After all my disapointments with the girl I fell in love with, on my way home I met one of the paraditas her name is Vanesa, cute little thing, bleached blonde hair, smoking tight little body, about 4'11, really beautiful eyes, she grabbed my hand when I was walking past her and I warmed up to her instantly, she gave me a beautiful smile. Like everyone else I've had my share of good and bad experiences, and she was definately a good one (so good I seen her twice more in the past weeks) I asked how much, she says $200 pesos, 2 positions, $50 for BJ, and $50 nude, we go upstairs pay $5 for the room, after I close the door she is all over me kissing me touching me, total gf action, I return the caresses and help her get undressed, this girl skin is milky white and so soft, trimmed pussy, my dick is hard as a rock, and she looks at it and smiles, pushed me to bed and gets on me sideways, so I can touch her ass and pussy, am fingering her and she is giving me a cbw, and begins to moan and tell me how much she likes that, I asked her to ride me cowgirl, and she teases my dick first, and gives me a naughty look as I enter her, she positions her self lying on my chest, I love that cause I love to see her expression, I grab her ass and start pounding her deep, she closes her eyes and moans loudly, am into this, it feels so good. But I want to fuck that pussy from behind so I ask to chg to doggy, with her on the bed and me standing on the floor so I can drive it deeper, she gets in position and now am teasing her with my cock, she says, stop it and give it to me, so I comply and ram her deep, and hard we are both sweating and patting when we finish.

Man it was such a great fuck. She made me forget all my wasted time with the HK girls. Total damage US$35, plus a $3 tip. And to think I was one of the suckers that spends $300+ at HK. I can kick my self. See ya later fellas.

$20 coin is 20 pesos and yes there is a banknote worth 20 pesos. $2 coin is 2 pesos.

Coins are tricky at first but simple later after you use them a couple times and well worth it. Print the info on your cheat sheet if you have to for reference.

When I first used them ,no one told me. LOL I held the coins in my hand one each and watched with ones they ( grocery store) took. I caught on.

WATCH all your change and openly count it.

Phordphan explains it really well.

Just take the last zero off.

200 pesos is 20 dollars ect.

10 pesos is 1 dollar ect.

Sorry if its alreay been covered but I just returned from la zona and am all hopped up on Dos Equis, Viagra and Vicodin. Hopefully I don't have a heart attack tonight.

I reread my post and I see how I confused you. I was thinking one thing and typing another. Phordphan explained it perfectly. Once again sorry to confuse you, my bad. Wish I could go back and make it right but to late. Kinda embarrassing, talking about how easy pesos are to use and then screw up the explanation but I guess that is the price I have to pay for being a mere human.lol

[Phordphan]

I'm kind of confused. If a mexican coin says 50¢ (cent sign) it is actually 5 pesos?

And if a coin says, $20 (dollars sign) that's 20 pesos or 200 pesos?

And for paper bills it's simply what it says like $100 printed on it means exactly $100 pesos, right?

Coins
Read 20 cents as 2 pesos and 50 cents as 5 pesos etc.

Read the $1 as 10 peso and $5 as 50 pesos and $10 as 100 peso etc.

Banknotes
Read the bills at face value in pesos. Yes it is weird how they do it but thats their money system.

A+ posting

First, note that all casas de cambio post a BUY and SELL rate. Do not confuse them. It means Buy DOLLARS, Sell DOLLARS. You will get the BUY rate when giving them your greenbacks. You will get the SELL rate if you want to give them pesos in exchange for greenbacks. This is where the commission structure is. So, obviously, you want to patronize the stands with the highest BUY number.

The windows immediately across the border, near the customs post, is the most convenient, but often doesn't offer the best rates. The consistently best rates I've found is the shop on Constitucion, near the cop shop, or the one immediately around the corner to the right, on Coahuila. Unless you're going to exchange more than about $150, the difference is small. They will take your money, generally show you on a computer screen the calculations, then count your money in front of you, then pass it through the bulletproof glass, along with a printed receipt. AT THAT POINT, RECOUNT YOUR MONEY. DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP. Mistakes can happen, you can get a dishonest clerk, whatver. IF THERE IS A PROBLEM, THIS IS THE TIME TO CORRECT IT. If you leave without counting your money in front of the clerk, it's your own fault if you get shortchanged. I learned this the hard way a loooong time ago at a Mexican tollbooth outside of Ensenada.

Unfortunately, Mexico got rid of the 10 Peso note a while back. So, the only coins you will be concerned about are the 10p, 5p and 2p. They all look alike, and are differentiated by size. They are gold in the center, with a silver border. They say $10, $5 and $2, respectively, although it may be hard to see in a dark bar. Any other coins you get will probably be the little silvery 1 peso coin, or, sometimes, Centavo coins (like our penny). You'll probably only see centavos at a grocery market. Just shitcan anything but the above 3. They are worthless.

Use the coins as tips. THe way the money is structured, you will wind up with a whole pocket full of coins if you are not careful. American bills have smaller denominations, so we use paper money more. The smallest peso note is their equivalent of the $20 bill, hence the coins.

I tend to take a lot of $1 bills, to tip the dancers. But, I took Perv's advice and began using 10p coins on occasion. The girls take them just fine. But, to this day I know where they put the bills, but have NO IDEA where they put the coins!

Don't sweat complicated calculations. Simply use 10:1 as a rule of thumb. Say you do the right thing and negotiate with the girl and settle, IN YOUR MIND, on $50. You tell her you have pesos and negotiate a 500 peso session. This is entirely doable. Don't forget, the girl has to pay the "penalty" when she exchanges dollars to pesos to pay her living expenses, so pesos are actually a better deal for her, too. And even if you come up to 600 pesos, you're still money ahead. Negotiate in pesos, pay in pesos. Do not negotiate in dollars and then switch to pesos. Bad form.

The bars already think in dollars, and price their peso rates accordingly. Still, you'll get a slightly better deal paying for drinks with pesos.

[Phordphan]

All right I'll try exchanging money next time I'm down there. You convinced me.

Where do you normally exchange your money? Do you hunt for the best place, have a regular location or simply use an ATM?

And is there a site or something that shows me what the Mexican coins look like and their value?
