Credit / Debit cards


Has anyone used a debit card and their bank not charged them a fee?
While in Todo Santos, I got money from the bank there ( Bankcor ??) from their ATM. I was not charged a fee by them or my bank, but I don't remember the exchange rate. The reason I bring this up is at the airport when I left I was out of pesos and wanted a beer. I got 50 pesos and was charged $1.50 by the ATM that I agreed to(I wanted a beer bad) Found out later My bank charged me $2.00 + $1.?? exchange fee. That beer cost me $9.00+. My point is be careful at stand alone ATM's. Maybe it's just airports, but they won't get me again. My bank is Washington Mutual and I say don't believe their ad "the buck fifty stops here".
