Trip Report (June 2024) - Roberta's Scuba Shack/ Village Tan Kah

[ggunn]

I haven't found Soriana and other big grocers to be much cheaper on beer than Oxxo. Sometimes Oxxo has sales that are better. But, while I love to save money, when I stay in town I tend to buy beer and soda from the little aborrotes. They definitely have higher prices but I feel the money is going straight into the hands of locals rather than corporate coffers.

During the Great Bohemia Oscura Shortage of two or three years ago I went to several OXXO stores looking for it, and none of them had any beer at all. It was weird.
