We had elderly friends who spent the winters in Rockport TX. They'd head down to Nuevo Progresso for their prescriptions a few days after they set up their RV and lay in their supplies. They said Nuevo Progresso was so much different--nicer--than other Mexican border towns.

If on Interstate 8, on the AZ/CA line, head west for a minute or two until you see the exit for Algodones Rd. Turn off, and head south. There's a small border crossing with several pharmacies, as well as some awesome chips and margaritas at the restaurant over to the right, just before crossing back to the US side. It's a lot cheaper than the bigger, well-known crossings. If you cross in the Fall or Winter months, all of the American (and Canadian) snowbirds are quite knowledgeable.
