DALLAS —  Dallas-based chain Value Giant announced in a press release Thursday that their retail stores will begin accepting Mexican pesos as payment, according to MyFOXDFW.com.

The Value Giant store at Southwest Center Mall will be hosting a promotional event on Saturday to introduce the new policy.

Value Giant is a regional discount retailer offering groceries, clothes, electronics and general merchandise.

In January, another Dallas-based business, Pizza Patron, created controversy with its announcement that it would accept the Mexican currency.

Pizza Patron has reported increased profits since the decision was made.

 

It will be interesting to see the differences in prices comparing the peso to the dollar since it the peso is not a 1 to 1 exchange.

There you have it. Screw America as long as you can make a profit. These companies and any other that does this need to be run out of business.

agree,...and Miller Beer,..Pizza Hut and McDonalds they are all supporters of illegal aliens,..I don't give one red cent to any of them.

What a crock!  Must be primarily mexican clientel for them to do that.  The anti-illegals will stop going there.  As long as we have these illegal-sympathizers, it's going to be hard to enforce anything in these towns like Dallas.

But if a few of them anti-illegals sit out-side and when they have a huge sale,..call ICE and have them round'em up,..because you know the legal Mexicans wont have pesos

How is this even legal???

Oh I forgot. "Legal" is a relative term.

ICE won't do it.  New Dallas Mayor is trying to protect them.
