Purchasing Electronics -Progresso/Cozumel

[dave76310]

Anybody know if there is anywhere on these stops you can get a Nintendo XL and games real cheap? Any other bargains on computers, etc? I remember way back walking across the border to Juarez or Matamoras and being able to buy US goods but haven't really noticed if this can be done at the cruise ports.

Just to give you a reality check. I live about 5 miles from the Mexican border. The economy here depends on the business from the Mexican side of the border. The price of major appliances and electronics is much cheaper on this side of the border than over there. Every day the Best Buy lot is full of pickups with Mexican plates loaded with fridges, stoves and tons of XBox's and WII's. Good luck.
