May be nothing. Didn't read it. Just saw heading.

Just FYI

Someone is trying to save some money. I think enough high school /college students did that in the past.
They are using ethanol, and will cause alcohol poisoning.

This is stemming from the story of a brother and sister, I think in Cancun, who passed out drunk in a pool at their hotel. He survived, she did not. Correct me if I am wrong.

Cerveza never did me wrong. Plus, you can usually find a joint locally to buy legit albeit overpriced name brand booze. Could always duty free if you absolutely must.

I don't tend to stay at all inclusive resorts anyways. I like going way off the beaten path. Won't be bothered with this issue.
