    i would budget for about 50-60 usd a night for clubs, tips and munchies after the club. so for 2 weeks thats 700 840 for the time then anything above that for spending on trips and crap you buy to take home

    yeah, it could be. you can use your atm card there or credit card for other incidentals. that would be like 1000 dollars. budget wisely

    i took 500 forone week my first year and it was enough with two day trips and gift shop crap.

    Why you guys bring pounds to Cancun? I think you get a much better exchange rate if you just withdraw Pesos from the ATMs down there.

    I doubt they are bringing quids, but just saying how much they're budgeting on.

    I spent well over 500 quid the 2 times I've been and it wernt even Spring Break when the clubs are dearer. Budget for more if poss and if you don't spend it, it's a bonus!

    it must be funny, in a rich mans world (sorry, bored). ... .i took £1k and came back with some, and that was going out getting hammered everynight, going on little trips (if you can handle not throwing up in rough seas in a small boat, i'd recommend deep sea fishing) .... oh and you'll need money for trinkets, never seen so many trinket shops, its impossible to resist the random crap thats on sale :lol:
