We didn't look at the prices in the Super Walmart, but FYI the prices at Costco are noticably higher for non-alcoholic beverages than in the US (e.g., the case of water that costs under $4.00 in the US was something like 600 pesos), but on the flipside the portions you have to buy are smaller (Pepsi and beer was in 12-packs instead of the 36 packs you find in US Costcos!). There's also a SAM'S Club near downtown, but we didn't check it out (I'm sure it would be more crowded since it's in the middle of the city, and I prefer Costco to Sam's anyway).
