Pesos for Pizza
As of today, a Dallas-based chain of pizza restaurants will accept both U.S. dollars and Mexican pesos as payment. The trial program will last through February at Pizza Patron locations in five states. The company has 59 restaurants in the United States.

1. They already accept Canadian dollars at Costco (and other places near the northern border).

3. should have heard Lou Dobbs talking about it...
'and this company is in Az, TX, CA, UT, etc.. what do those states have a big problem with???"

just come right out and say it LOu! A simple 'I hate brown people' would give you 10 more minutes at least to talk about outsourcing ;)
