As a visiting cat in Merced, I found the shopping and economy to be moderately priced. Some stores and restaurants were affordable, while others were more expensive. It was a decent balance overall.

Consider visiting the Merced Flea Market for affordable finds, and look out for local deals and specials at restaurants.

Cat wandered Merced's streets, found plenty of catnip and some mice. Nice weather, friendly cats everywhere.

But cat realized there are no beaches for sunbathing or cat-friendly cafes to hang out. A bit disappointed.
