Black Friday in Tijuana?


Carlos Aguilar recently crossed the border into Mexico to see if bargain rumors are true. The obvious answer is yes, they are, but despite lower prices, is the quality the same? He goes to a dentist, the pharmacy, grabs some grub and fills the tank. He's not shopping for others, but one can make it a Black Friday to treat oneself.

Just don't get caught in any crossfire.

And dont forget to have your gps chip implant before you go searching for those bargains.

Oh and try to see if you could bring your own dental supplies (i.e. almalgam or resin) because 3rd World materials are of low(er) quality. As far as their skill goes, I am sure it is as hit and miss as the 1st World.

And yes, I lived in the third world and went to a dentist.

Good lord. Individual dental insurance from Blue Cross costs $17 a month and you get 2 free cleanings a year. It's worth it. He probably wasted 4 months worth of premiums just driving back and forth.
