Looking for my local HEB (Texas) to begin accepting pesos.
Why not?
All the stuff they sell is labeled in Spanish.
That was actually a business decision by HEB several years ago. I remember seeing a speech by an HEB executive I think in 2003. He said they were specifically targeting Hispanic customers as part of a marketing strategy to deal with the entrance of Wal-mart into the grocery business. They knew they could not compete with Wal-mart on price, so they decided to target specific market segments.
Every time I go to Texas, I go to the biggest HEB I can find and stock up on all the Mexican stuff I can’t get here, such as machaca, Tajin, special achiote, etc. and then UPS it to myself here on the East Coast. I love HEB.
I love HEB. I won’t shop for groceries anywhere else. I love their international foods.
