buy now or wait?

04 Jun 2008 19:45

just been looking at the exchange rate and today i see the best rate of 2.30 to the £ :!:

So should i buy now or wait a few more weeks to see if it rises anymore. We are gonna take OH nationwide card but i like to have a couple of hundred on us to get us started without having to panic about finding an atm.

Also should we exchange in resort to getter a better price?

Just keep thinking the more i get to the £ the cheaper the efes :!:

Hi thomson785, I'm just taking enough to see me through the first day and then change money when wer'e out there as you get a much better rate, especially from the supermarkets. :)

I'm with Cheriton on this too.... just take enough lira to see you through the first day, you'll get a much better exchange rate out in resort.

Don't forget you can change money pretty much anywhere, you don't have to use the change offices - a good place I always use is the supermarket in the centre next to the chill bar where you can change english money or travellers cheques at a good rate.
You will also see exchange rates posted up in many of the restaurants.
