What PESO is good in Cancun....I have 1985 and above...do they get a new peso every year?

Question

This seems akward because the US doesn't do this. I'm going to Cancun and wondered what my peso will look like when I exchange US dollar....(going to exchange to use in markets only).

Answer 1

Why anyone would even answer after "Sparks perfect  answer" is a mystery to me.

Answer 2

I get a little more peso (pesado) every year myself. I am American.

Have fun down there. Leave yourself some time for unplanned adventure!

Answer 3

About halfway down the page on this link is a foto of current pesos used in Mexico.   Anything older than '92 is useless

Answer 4

Well remember the peso isn't that much so depending on the denomination you have it could be very little and really not matter much for instance if you have a 5 or 1 its a penny or nickel if you have a 50 then it's 5.00 I get the best exchange when I use my debit card you have to remember there as well that when you take money you are getting charged a fee so don't take little amounts like 500 which isn't 500.00 dollars it's only 50.00 dollars I disagree with the other poster on the American dollar making things a higher price I get things cheaper cause I am paying with the dollar let them know you are giving them American they value that if you give them 10 to 1 usually the rate has been around 11 to 1 so you see the deal is better. If they are asking 500 peso tell them 2.50 American I always start the deal at 1/2 they will tell you they need to feed there family but stand firm walk away and you will usually win.it may go a little higher but not much.

Answer 5
