No pesos cash accepted makes sense.... but the transactions will still be denominated in Pesos, although for all practical purposes, the Peso per-se is dead because once a non resident has to use Plastic the rate becomes the official 5.x thereby killing the savings..... so yes, semantic details aside this means GAME OVER.
