Pesos pesos pesos

Just a quick entry- everything here is so cheap, and I'm just going to brag for a minute about the 80 cent sodas I've been drinking for the past two weeks.

15 pesos/.40 USD/1 concho ride (a really, really, really sketchy car)
30 pesos/.81 USD/Basic price for a soda
55 pesos/1.49 USD/Cheap Presidente beer
120 pesos/3.26 USD/Max fare for a Taxi
120 pesos/3.26 USD/Pack of cigarettes (not that I smoke, but it's so much cheaper than in NY I felt it was worth mentioning)
20 pesos/.54 USD/Bag of chips
500 pesos/13.51 USD/My cheapo cell phone from Orange
1 peso/.03 USD/1 text message to another Orange customer (before taxes)
3 pesos/.08 USD/1 text message to the USA (before taxes)
