13.193 at the moment. It's just the nature of the beast. I wouldn't be cashing in the farm quite yet...if ever.

How much can you pull out of Sandanter with a BofA card?
Can you get more if you go in the branch office?

That's about a 15% increase in purchasing power in the past two months, 11.2 to 12.9 cambio. When it hits 13.5, and it very well could the shape Europe is in, cash in for 4 months needs.:lol:

Primarily for domestic products only. As the Dollar rises against the Peso, imported goods will cost more Pesos at all points.

I wouldn't be going out to buy Pesos as an investment unless you plan to take advantage of a saving immediatly. The last thing in the world I would want is a mattress full of Pesos.

Euros arn't looking too good either since China is on the verge of buying Greece.

Keep your Dollars.

6000 pesos at a time at the ATM with no fee. Hands down the fastest way to get the best rate. I get an e-mail a few hours after each withdrawal giving me the rate I got too. Always good.

6000p per day per card. We have 2 cards so 12,000p per day. You cannot take money out of Santander office with a BofA card; only through the ATM.

Every month we use this method to take pesos out, and then walk them over to Bancomber for deposit. Only fee-free way to do it.

My understanding is that is dependant upon what withdrawal amount per day you have established with your BofA account in the states. Several months ago I raised mine to $1000 per day US, so I can withdraw up to the equivalent amount in pesos... (using my BofA debit card, of course) and I use ScotiaBank in Ensenada.

I saw that notice posted on their ATM, however, if your actual account is at BofA in the US, the rules for ATM withdrawals appear to be the limit established with your US BofA account, and the beauty (at this time at least) is there are NO BANK FEES INVOLVED IN THE TRANSACTION!:bounce:

Ive been watching the exchange rate like a hawk lately. I try to time some silver libertad purchases when the silver price dips and exchange rate is up.
If I can get the difference to near the spot price of silver....then I buy.

If you go to Chase bank anywhere in the US and use "Rapid Cash", you are allowed to send someone (or yourself) $1500 max. 3 times a month per Chase account. It can be all in the same day.

Money arrives at Banorte. No need for an account there. The someone you sent it to or yourself goes there with ID and picks up pesos at the day's rate. No fees, no commissions. No need to deposit the money. Can be anyone, a MX national, a foreigner, an extra terrestrial, a dog, as long as you have ID.
