Beware of scam. As you walk the shops, on Fifth Avenue, they will approach you saying “I am your hotel waiter” and lure you into a shop. If you purchase with a credit card, they will say the charge will be in pesos, yet you are charged in USD. I confirmed with my credit card company and approached the merchant. He put a call into his bank, but for all
I know, he was speaking to his girlfriend. Cash is best IMO, just have product in hand.
