Is there any check point stops along the way while heading down to Ensenada?
[QUOTE=HornyIndo;2208954]Does anyone have more inputs on how to make the trips more economical?[/QUOTE]Yes. More sessions with street girls and fewer with bar girls / escorts.
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.

[QUOTE=MongerHunger;2209258]Is there any check point stops along the way while heading down to Ensenada?[/QUOTE]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.
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.
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.

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.
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).

[QUOTE=Tomjackin;2209920]Are you serious? Costly at 10-20 bucks?[/QUOTE]I agree. $10- $20 is nothing when it comes to P4P. That's equal to 5-10 sex sessions with chicas for $100 USD and 1 chica in HK can cost that same amount pf $100 for one session. It's one of the best bargains if I ever seen one.

I would like to know if any mongers on this board are paying less than $9 USD per session with a SG. If so, they must be clipping coupons to give to chicas for a discount on top of an already amazing low price.
Sorry for not being clear earlier, I meant I did negotiate the prices and got them to reduce by 10 to 20 $.
Their typical starting point was 80 $, I was able to get them to 70 or 60.

Generally speaking, most of those same chicas will allow me to upgrade to fucky / suckie for 50 pesos mas. Some even encourage the upgrade for the slightly higher fee.
It took some effort. I stayed in Leyva for 5 straight weeks in February / March 2012 or 2013 and made a bunch of 100 p offers for 15 minute BJs and was pleasantly surprised by how many "Si's" I received. That is the local's rate as few locals can afford to pay more.
A few of the walkers really liked the regalo and introduced me to numerous amigas for threesome sessions followed by the "shopping experience" in my regal drawer. Over the years most have not given me fee pressure for more pesos because I am personable, generous with extra regalo and munchies, and known to be resistant to price increases. This despite my limited Spanish.

Here I was thinking you were negotiating with SGs at $10-$20 and thought BG was a typo in your post because BGs are not that cheap. Yes I did assume that's what you were talking about and I was hoping that you were trying to get the best deals. So now everything is clear to me. You are getting your feet wet in Zona Norte. Asking questions, getting clarifications and making corrections are a good thing. Also giving feedback and sharing. You seem adventurous and that can take you along way with experiencing a variety of pleasures and sensations. Keep at it and as you learn the streets of Tijuana your journeys will get cheaper and you will be able do more with your money.
