Re:Pacifico, Sol Corona...?
As an ex economist, I measure inflation in Puerto Vallarta by the price of beer, compared to the states. When we first came down here (went down there -- we are not living there yet, just in the mindset) you could buy a six pack of negra modelo for ONE DOLLAR!! ten years ago. Now a six pack of tecat...

Re:The money situation...
Since this is your first time down there, you can't do what I do ( and probably many others) and thats have pesos to get you started on your trip. The ATMs are certainly your best bet, but there are none in the airport and its always helpful to have pesos for the taxi into town or wherever you are g...
