Do you know that OXXO stores -- OXXOs -- are different in the north of Mexico from what you'll get in an OXXO in southern Mexico? For one thing, stuff costs more in southern-Mexico stores and, besides that, there's less variety, different stuff. And where's a worse-run OXXO other than that one on la Calle 20 de Noviembre in Oaxaca?
