Pros: 1. They take…read moresolid COVID precautions on entry. 2. Decent selection and fair prices on food. 3. I enjoy the fresh juices at the counter. 4. The butchers are cool and I enjoy the selection of moles and seafood as well. 5. They have this luxury aisle (which is like a microcosmo of La Comer next door in one aisle). Interesting products. 6. The selling of electronics, appliances, school supplies and car gear makes it feel halfway between Walmart and Costco. 7. Solid pharmacy and sports section. 8. The bakery is godly. Seriously too notch and I think better than La Comer's bakery. Cons: 1. I got discriminated against after I paid. I went to join my 93 year old grandfather after I paid and tipped the man bagging my groceries. I was stopped by a woman in a Mega cashier uniform. She asked in Spanish about my blue swim trunks. I'm so-so in Spanish so I assumed she thought I was stealing. I emptied my pockets to show my I-Phone X and USA passport. Then asked in Spanish if she wanted to see my receipt. She brought over a coworker who spoke English. He said she thinks you stole those win trunks. I told him I get them in Vallarta in Costco. He said forget about it and let me off. I joined my grandfather waiting for me. My skin is darker and he is white so they probably could be a factor. I am mixed race Filipino-American. I was wearing my facial mask so my mustache was covered. I will have some empathy/critical thinking and say the world is anxious/on-edge from COVID. That same man appeared when we were loading our car (he did not walk us out). He apologized in English that his colleague thought I stole those shorts. I told him I would have had to come in naked then take the shorts Bruce's I have nowhere else to hide other shorts. He said she was just being stupid. In her defense, I later saw I did not remove the Kirkland tags from when I bought it at Costco yesterday. However, again, I'd have to come in naked to have stolen those trunks. And if she'd checked first instead of accusing me she'd probably find they don't carry those swim trunks here. Lazy accusations should be against store policy. I've had similar incidents happen to me around Vallarta. I know México is hurting, but it's no reason to assume a man with some color on his skin is a thief. In their defense, it seems that in both Mega and La Comer they view everyone as a potential thief. Hell they even have men with shotguns inside Costco in Vallarta. Not sure if they have robbery statistics to justify that attitude. If they don't, I suggest you give customers the benefit of the doubt and not just white customers. 2. Some cashiers or baggers can lack manners. 3. Smell the meats. I've had a cashier throw away chicken breast for me because he smelt it was old. 4. Mixed salads were mainly wilted but that's probably due to COVID. 5. Overstaffed and they don't seem too helpful when you ask a question. Again this attitude could be an offshoot of the COVID economic depression México is going through.

Oxxo is Mexico's version of 7-11. They seem to be on almost every street corner in town. I usually…read morepop into one several times a day for a soda, water, or small snack. The prices are on par with a convenience store, and they have those quick grab and go items you're looking for. Oxxo's aren't fancy, but they have what you need. This review will be brief because I only have three tips for you: 1. ALWAYS use cash (pesos) to pay. NEVER use your credit or debit card unless it is absolutely necessary. I have heard horror stories of skimming going on, especially at Oxxo. 2. ONLY use small bills (pesos) to pay. Oxxo cashiers are notorious for not accepting large bills. They will flat-out tell you "no." The smaller the better. 3. If you're buying a beverage, always opt for the cans and bottles that are in a big bucket with ice rather than the refrigerated coolers, if offered. The drinks will be far colder in the ice bucket than the fridges.

We felt safe seeing grandma behind the counter, it came across as a family run business. I am olive skinned & brown eyed, so I fit in OK .. took a few items to the counter & the daughter spoke to me in Spanish .. when she realized my blue eyed husband was behind me speaking to me in English .. EVERYTHING changed. all of a sudden their credit card reader was no longer working (even-though we just saw one person before us use it, it still had blinking lights) they figured out we did not have any pesos since we asked them if they had an ATM .. then we were told they take American $$$ - however, they made up their own exchange rate. The absolute worts thing they did was sold us SIM cards (chip) for our 2 phones ... we had been told in US to make sure we activate the chip/SIM card & add data to it, activate it in store to make sure it is working & valid. We did, the young lady that sold us 7 days of unlimited 5G data actually charged us $20 for 2 chips then only activated it for the minimum 2 hr data use which was $0.20 cents worth and pocketed the difference. The sad part was that we went downtown for our 1st dinner, everything worked OK until we need to order an UBER or taxi .. nothing was working & we got stranded in a new country & environment. Mexicans are wonderful loving caring folks .. however, there are a few that are frigging evil & money hungry scum. This was NOT limited to just this OXXO store .. we were buying several items totaling approx. $30US from another OXXO store only to be told credit card reader was not working but they take American $$$ .. as we left everything on the counter & began to walk out credit card reader magically started to work again.

The one in Sayulita was okay, but I wouldn't expect it to be a fancy place. For what it's worth, it definitely had everything I needed and more. The cashier and doorman were both friendly. I did like that during the late hours, they only allow a small group of shoppers in while other folks waited by the doors outside. I imagine this is to keep order and not have anything stolen if there is a big crowd indoors. Otherwise, they were just understaffed. Again, this place gets the job done for all your quick needs. I would recommend this place!

The yogurt in the us is too milky. The apply yogurt tastes like a nice ice cream dessert they even had coconut yogurt good but not like in Thailand. 2 huge bags of groceries n it cost just $10!

Service was very attentive (although we showed up in the middle of the day, and there were only two other tables sat). But if you are able to find them while youre in downtown PVR, it's definetly worth a stop in; they're off the beaten oath a little. You'll have to leave the main strip of restaurants and shops on the main strip and head towards the hills. Bottom line: good food at a really good price, great break from all the tourist traps on the board walk. **** CAUTION: CASH ONLY ****
