How much did it really cost to get dental work in Mexico? The biggest hack from this trip wasn’t the dental work. It was using the Global Entry benefit that comes with our American Express Platinum Card to skip the two hour line crossing back into the U.S. We made it through the border in less than 15 minutes. @American Express Here’s what we actually spent on our same day trip to Tijuana: Slim’s dental work: $540 Parking in San Diego: $15 My manicure: $12 Tretinoin: $7 Hydroquinone: $7 Couples spa experience: $100 Ubers around Tijuana: $3 to $15 This is exactly the type of content we’re excited to make more of. Real cost breakdowns, credit card benefits, personal finance, medical tourism, and practical ways to make your money work harder. Would you cross the border if it meant saving thousands on dental work? #AffordableAbroad #MedicalTourism #DentalTourism #finance
