How much is one American dollar worth in Mexico?

I know American money is worth way more than Mexican money. But I got confused because they said the American dollar raised to 20 pesos instead of 15 pesos. But if I am wrong please correct me :]. By the way I think I got ripped off in Mexico.lol. I do not really understand money like men do haha. I spend $3.60 cents, when the man said it was 33 pesos for two bags of chips haha. So did I get ripped off? Because if I did I think im going to get very mad and throw the chips in that mans face lol.
Additional Details
the reason i would throw the chips back in his face is because he also was being rude and yelled at me and my mom when we were asking him to hurry because we really had to get back on the bus. But he ignored us kept talking on the phone and yelled at us a couple times

Punch in "1" for US Dollars then select pesos.

And please don't say stupid things like "I don't really understand money like men do." That's insulting to me and to all women.

x-rates.com says today that 33 Mexican pesos if equal to $2.16 at 15.27 pesos to a buck. Have a great time and keep the sun shining. I'm leaving the cold of Minnesota for Playa friday! Yippee!

1 American dollar (USD) is worth 15.37 Pesos (MXN). This is right, from Yahoo's currency converter.

Tim S
right now 15 pesos = 1 us dollar, so you should have spent about 2 us dollars, you got ripped!

1.00 USD = 15.3799 MXN
United States Dollars Mexico Pesos
1 USD = 15.3799 MXN 1 MXN = 0.0650200 USD

I know, sometimes you have to be careful because people can take advantage if they think you are just on holiday and don't know the exchange rates! I wouldn't have bought anything if he did that to me, hardly proffessional!

Currency conversion is all fine and good, but for the most part Mexican vendors trade 1 USD for about 10 Pesos. Makes for easy math for them and they make some money on the conversion.


Loop
15.373 pesos to the dollar, but at the rate we are going, soon you will need a wheelbarrow of dollars to get a single peso,


SUNNY
Well my mom was in Mexico last week and she said it was 1 dollar for 15 pesos. I'm going to Mexico next month and will be spending some MONEEEEY.

I wouldn't recommend throwing the chips in that guy's face. He probably deals with a lot worse problems then you do when your ipod doesn't work and you're late for the bus and you can't decide what flavor smoothie to pick.

Deal with losing $3.60 and move on. The people of Mexico have much worse troubles then you do dear.


Jack
1 U.S. dollar = 15.3426003 Mexican pesos


Britney M
You should've paid about $2 for that bag of chips. I live in Mexico and the average exchange rate is about 15.00, in some places higher and in some lower. That's about an average. For one dollar you would get about 15 pesos, give or take, depending on rate.


Mike B
11 dollar is equal to 15.38 pesos
and you diid get ripped of 3.60 is 56 pesos


cubsfan2154
No thats about right
you can also check it just search currency on google or yahoo


quiksilver
1 US dollar is approximately 11 mexican pesos
It can change due to inflation... (may not be accurate)


xsportygirlx
1 American dollar equals 10 Mexican pesos. So say something is 5.00 here it would be 50.00 in Mexico. At leas that was what it was last time i visited (this summer)


jason g
its about 20 pesos per dollar, so 3.60 should get you about 70 pesos. So, yea, you got ripped!
