But hotels, club drinks, and most bar girls? Fuck that. Pay in dollars and save some hassle. I've met a few bar girls who will accept lower amounts in pesos (She says $100 and you offer 1600 pesos and she agrees). Maybe she would have accepted $80, who knows? Most of the time, the girl's asking price will be the same in pesos or dollars. I've had a bar girl open the calculator on her phone and calculate how many pesos it would cost (this was when the exchange rate was like 17:1, it's much easier to calculate at 20:1).
Not to mention the amount you lose from making mistakes with tips and shit. With the $4 beer, whether you hand the guy a $5 or a $20, you know what you are getting back. With a 78 peso beer, you hand the guy a 200 p bill and you get back a 50 p note and a handful of coins. Lots of guys will take the bill and leave the coins, giving the scammer almost a $4 tip.
If you are totally comfortable with currency exchange and have no trouble manipulating strange money in a dark and noisy club, then go for it. But in my opinion it's not worth the hassle

I feel bad for the bros who are denied SENTRI and have to put up with long waits at the border to return.
Criteria vary depending on changes of policies and admins. However, SENTRI costs about $50 for 5 years to apply, worth trying. If denied, keep writing to the ombudsman to appeal, potential asking your local congressperson for an endorsement, Dep of State may reconsider.
Recently a bro's GE was revoked but reinstated upon appeal. Another bro's GE was revoked due to unfavorable info found in his social backgrounds. Another bro applied, got approved, interviewed and the GE card within 2 weeks. Things seem to vary widely but with the huge bureaucracy in the Federal government you will usually get what you want if you persist.

Hello everyone,
I have two old DUI convictions over 10 years ago. I have a third arrest that was dismissed, also over 10 years old. Anyone have any info if I can get a SENTRI pass? Thanks for any information.

Posts: 573Embarrassing Moments
There have been many embarrassing moments when sharing time with the beautiful babes from Zona Norte and one reoccurring one that keeps happening is when I am buying them a drink and we are having a bit of trouble communicating, I use google translate of course and I hand my phone to the girl and she starts to type out what she is trying to say BUT. On the screen is also the previous texts I have had with other girls. The girls don't probably really care I am sure and expect it a bit but it's a bit embarrassing. I remember with one girl we were looking at the Mexico map a girl was showing me where she was from and she scrolled up on the map and noticed the marked spot in San Diego for where I live. She laughed a bit knowing gringo's like to keep their privacy a bit and she just identified where I lived so no more privacy for me!

I guess over time it could add up if you frequent enough. But then again, you're not really getting the exchange rate you see on google so its likely even less.

I'm still a newbie in Tijuana, but unlike Asia -- my impression was that everything was being paid for via USD.
Didn't seem like pesos was used much.
Like if girls are not budging on $100 usd, what is the equivalent in pesos? Obviously not an exact exchange rate otherwise no benefit.

I remember going to an out of state Strip Club like 10 years ago, getting completely smashed with a few friends and buying random people drinks, and then laughing incessantly when the bar tab came back. We each dropped $100, and the next night, when we went back to get drunk again and watch naked girls dance, the waitresses got into an argument with the hostess about who's rotation it actually was to serve us. We did this trip four more times until it became a scheduling nightmare for everyone involved. Wish we had known then about what was available just south of the border.
