mrsteacher 7 Posted June 9, 2012 I brought small bills (nothing over $20) and almost all places took it. I did get pesos back in change though. I used my cc for any bigger purchases (shopping, haircut, etc.). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mommyinneed 25 Posted June 9, 2012 Every place we went in tj took us dollars. They will help you figure the pesos which changes daily. Everyone was so honest! We went to the 7 eleven, shopping, my fiancé ate at dominios, taco stands, hospital, hotel, and all had American money! It's so close to the us it's almost second nature for all mexicans. And I was impressed with all that spoke englih. Don't take independent cabs, and don't go out after dark. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tia Noel 56 Posted June 9, 2012 Tia you've probably told me already but when are you headed to TJ? As of now, I'm going in mid December. I haven't set an exact date yet. I really hope I find a buddy from this site because it looks like I'm riding solo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BeautyVGSJourney 99 Posted June 10, 2012 Tia I did not have a buddy until two weeks before my surgery and when I got there I had two more buddies that Dr Ponce was doing surgery on but where scheduled by a different coordinator and don't come to the forums. So by then you will probably have someone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
