Some Things Never Change

When Walmart showed up in Guaymas and Leys in San Carlos, everyone thought that the small businesses in San Carlos would start to fail.  While there must have been some decline in profit, the smaller stores have learned to adapt.

They have brought in more American products along with trying to bring in fresher vegetables and fruit.

When coming down, we noticed that the food prices in the United States are beginning to rival Canada's prices.  Upon arrival here, we saw that prices have gone up in Mexico as well.

We try to support the local economy and continue to buy our fruit and vegetables at an outdoor market.

Tony has been here for years with a loyal following....to help with his business he has added a small taco stand next door that seems to be busy most of the time.
