We'll be heading home before too long so I'll be back to writing more about SMA.Billie Mercerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17826454938577230499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11526678.post-20569785954286045852008-05-25T23:18:00.000-05:002008-05-25T23:18:00.000-05:00Thanks Billie,I'm going to take your list when we ...Thanks Billie,<BR/>I'm going to take your list when we go shopping at Soriana in Playa del Carmen and see how the prices compare over here.<BR/><BR/>Keep enjoying that 3 year old, he'll be 10 before you can even blink. :) Or so it will seemMimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04963872546616352326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11526678.post-53050593181105511772008-05-25T23:12:00.000-05:002008-05-25T23:12:00.000-05:00I just wanted to coment on your blog.

Frequently there is a tendency among people living in Mexico to report the prices of only the least expensive items when making these comparisons.<BR/><BR/>Last summer I compared prices of the usual stuff I buy at Costco in Morelia with the same items in San Mateo, and I was surprised to learn that the prices were about the same.jennifer rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06285568306915329954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11526678.post-18405152766157071572008-05-25T15:33:00.000-05:002008-05-25T15:33:00.000-05:00Thanks, Billie.

The way to save on food costs in Mexico is exactly the same as in the United States -- use fewer canned items and take the time to cook. Moving to Mexico to save on food costs will simply cause disappointments.Steve Cottonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00468378507171761868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11526678.post-41482293756296689582008-05-25T11:50:00.000-05:002008-05-25T11:50:00.000-05:00Thanks for the info -and thanks for taking the tim...Thanks for the info -and thanks for taking the time to do so!
