Received our cash for our trip (flying in 12 hours) and despite being asked for small denominations we have ended up with $50 $20 and $10 bills. I like to tip but not with 50's. :flagireland: :mexicoflag:
Throw a US$50 in the jar at Paty'o's at the start of the night and ask for your preference of drinks and you'll be well served the remainder of the evening.
I read somewhere that servers n such in Cancun go crazy over $2 bills, think they show special thanks for very good service. Anyone ever heard of that or can confirm?
finally found 1 of our Chase's offices that has them......1/2 the size of a stack of $1's and generally tip more than $1, so think we'll go for it.:aktion069:
mr mrs kimo when you get there ask a member of staff to brake it down for you when you get there thay did for us last year
Yeah it is a pain. Our first trip back in January 2012, we ordered ours from Thomas Cook. When we collected, they'd ordered mostly $5000 (£200) and $1000 (£40) pesos notes! Bloody pain to get broken down when we weren't leaving the resort that much. Can you take them to a regular bank and ask them to swap with lower denominations?
TD bank in Canada will order small bills ( 3 days),, CIBC would not promise size of bills . ( witnessed 2 weeks ago Ontario )
