Looks like a decent rate. Wish I was there to take advantage. In fact, Just wish I was there...............................

For those who don't know, DO NOT USE an exchange shop, always use a little supermarket, a far better rate is available that way.

looks like it was a nice sunny day in icmeler today :) nice to see
thats good if that exchange place is offering 2.45 then the little supermarkets would have been about 2.5
best i got last week in izmir was 2.52 :)
so much better when you get a good exchange rate

As Dave has rightly pointed out exchange shops will not always be the best place to go, but It is nice to see the "magic" 2.5 barrier being broken (just!)

It was great , 2.58 in Istanbul a couple of weeks ago, but had started to come down (2.52) before we left. It would be nice to think it would go back up in Ma when we come to Icmeler, somehow think that is wishfull thinking!!! :( :(
