Note #1 "Two" 10 Peso Fund.  (inflation!)  Every year I have had fun collecting 10 pesos from as many people as possible for the East Cape Guild Scholarship Fund and it multiples to at least two scholarships per year.  Small price for reading about 300 community newsletters per year.  So, if you see me, flip a couple of ten pesos or equivalent or Paul at Plum Loco gift store and mail service next to
Taqueria El Viejo has a jar for your connivance.  The BPE goes out to over 3,000 email address so my goal is 3,000 twenty peso notes.  TY

Courtesy of the Gringo Gazette:  If You Are Charged In Dollars, Beware
Many restaurants have posted their menus in US dollars only, which is illegal in Mexico. They are supposed to post in pesos first, and then in foreign currencies.
But with the rate of exchange jumping up and down like a pogo stick, maybe more up than down, some businesses are taking advantage of our precious tourists by showing prices in US dollars only and then using a high rate of exchange.
If you are a victim of this practice, you have options. Mexico has a consumer protection agency, known as the least corrupt in the country, called Profeco for its looong name in Spanish. You may take a photo of the menu, and email it to the Profeco headquarters in Mexico City. They have a page in English, but most of it is in Spanish.
Here's a link to their English page: http://www.profeco.gob.mx/english.htm  and here's the email addresses to file a report: denunciasprofeco@profeco.gob.mx  and http://concilianet.profeco.gob.mx
The requirements are in Spanish here: http://www.profeco.gob.mx/Servicios/quejas_denun.asp
You may also pretend you do not live in Mexico full time and report it here:
www.profeco.gob.mx/Servicios/quejas_denun_ingles.asp
Let's all be part of the solution
