And don’t wear anything identifying (i.e. a Penguins shirt) cuz they will lock in on that and the vendors will drive you crazy.
Funny that I got so used to seeing guys with full-auto guns it didn’t occur to me to mention it.
As for money I recommend carrying just cash and in different pockets. You will also get better deals if you are paying in pesos. You also don’t have to do the exchange.
