I remember as a teenager going to visit my grandparents in Tucson and we would drive down to the Mexican border to go shopping. It wasn't too safe to leave your vehicle down there so My grandfather would pay a guy to watch his van. One time he paid the guy by giving him a handful of Canadian Tire money. I often wonder if that money ended up being used as currency in Nogales Mexico.

 

I remember the same thing. There were always kids asking, “keep an eye?” whenever I parked my car in Ensenada. I always parked near the police station so I felt safe enough to not worry about these annoying kids.
