No, of course they never ask for American money. Their peso is good anywhere in Mexico, that is their national currency.

Like I said though, we like to take a bit of American with us, for tippping etc. We never buy other stuff with American.

We take pesos out of bank machines as we need it, but we always try to spend it all before we get back. If we come back with American money, we just keep it until the next time we vacation. You can use American money pretty well anywhere you travel.

But if you are not going back to Mexico right away, who wants pesos hanging around and it is just a pain to go to your own bank when you get home and change it back to Canadian dollars.
