I went to 10 different businesses this AM, including Walmart and Oxxo (SAT, en frente Chula Vista), and had no problem and I am way over 60.
Pulled my baseball cap low and my face mask high so they could only see my eyeballs.
At Pancho´s they asked me how old I was, I said 59.....good to go

But you only look 39, you know that, Slainte
Be glad you are not as old as I claim to be, on this forum, 111.

Yeah Pete, I have to grow up and act my age. I´ve tried, but it´s hard to do....maybe in my next century....

Is there a restriction on over 60 being able to shop now?, Can we still breathe?

While stores may try to deny you entry, they can't because the lock down specifically says that people can go to the pharmacy, docs appointments or grocery shopping. The stores are being over zealous initially, but by now it should all be OK. The original notice said you "should not" go out if you are over 60--it's not an obligation.

Gamina how do you say "should not "in Spanish?.. All I read is that they were using the words "no deben"..

Or "ought not".....same as playing with gasoline and matches at the same time.

Someone posted this on FB. Downtown Ajijic.
I rarely go to OXXO, but had workers at the house today and needed more cold cokes for them. OXXO is closest place with cold cokes in cans.
Either I look younger than I am ; or more likely, as with most rules in MEX, they are simply suggestions, The young man undid the chain for me as I approached the doorway and never asked my age.
I was the only customer in store, btw.
