Went to cr last year. The exchange rate was 400 to 1 and I never paid more than $60 at DR. Sometimes $70 and if she stayed longer and I busted more than 1 nut $80. I just got back, the exchange is 520 to 1 and all these putas are asking $100. Is it me or are we spoiling them? Guys we have to hold our ground and stop paying $100 this easy. I held my ground and paid $80 for some $60 for others. We are getting desperate. Try doing that sometimes. Sometimes you loose them but most of the time they give in

400 to 1 rate last year? (Don't think so unless you used that change booth at the airport) :) I thought they've asked 100 for decades :idea: and yes some guys spoil them. :roll: Anyway you still payed 60-80 in spite of your 30% inflation from your 400 rate last year :shock: so what's the big deal.

Good luck with that. All the hot ones know they can get $100 relatively easy. Why would they take $80 or even $60... I'd love to see the babe that you got for $60 recently. Got any pics? :?

Sure. For my eyes only... :P

If there's one thing I've learned in 16 trips, discretion pays dividends.

We generally pay more if we do not know what we are doing.
