I plan on bringing cash for tipping to Mexico- I have 100 in small bills. Will my credit card work down there, too? Someone said to bring more cash for the pharmacy, etc...but I have never been a fan of carrying a ton of cash on me. Will my credit cards work in the pharmacies and stores??

Thanks!

Well i did not goto mexico…but theres a CC that work just like your in America..no fees just like cash…Good luck!!!

Credit cards do work just fine in the pharmacies. I didn't need mine for my VSG trip, but I did use one on a previous trip with no issues. I hate carrying cash too, but I just took out about $200 and stashed it in all different places so it wasn't like ALL just in my wallet. That way if I lost any single bag, I'd still have some left. I ended up spending almost NONE of it. I think I used a little for tips and I used some on a bottle of vitamin water. That was it!

@@JamieLogical Awesome, thank you!!! I was really not wanting to go down there with a ton of cash. I hate carrying it. I am also paranoid, so that may have something to do with it

Woot!

@@shizwiz if you take your cards you should contact UR carriers so that they don't freeze your account thinking that it is a scam or somebody's ripping you off... I have never been to Tijuana but I have been to Rocky Point many times.. And if for any reason you use their banking down there, there will be usually an international 3% fee... Just a heads up..! By the way I think your 100$ in small bills will be fine.. I'm not sure you'll be up to shopping much, lol..

THANKS All! I set up mY trAvel alerts prior to coming and should be good to go! I am going to be picked up and taken into TJ today....YAY!
