dollar exchange rate

[saintpeter48]

i'm off to Las Vegas in a couple of weeks, first time, and wondered if it was better to change sterling into dollars here in UK or over in the States, better rate ect. any help much appreciated, thanks.

I can't see any reason why one would be any better than the other. My advice is just shop around for the best deal. Do you need much cash though- it's often cheaper to pay for things on credit card

My sis is a holiday dollar exchange rate fanatic. She reckons that marks or the post office give the best rates and it's easier to shop around for a good rate ahead of time than it would be on your hols.

I wouldn't want to waste my holiday time looking around just to save the odd cent here and there. I just get mine before I go abroad. I find that Thomas Cook offer good rates, order on-line and pick up and pay in store. That way you won't have the charges that your bank may put on and usually get a better rate than the Post Office and some others.

i would recommend M & S who always seem to have the best rate. I have found it better to buy before I go. You will need lots of hard cash if you are going to gamble ;-)

And if you are planning on gambling with it, you won't need to worry about exchange rates on the war home......:-)
