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.

Thats true but I posted pic just to give indication of way things are moving

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!)

[dksbbs]

And long may it continue to rise

[Katiehutchinson_1991]

nice to see 2.5
hope it keeps up

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!!!

[barnie]

Didn't take a pic but Change Offices in Icmeler and Marmaris were offering 2.445 today.

Makes me glad I took the chance and bought from A..a at 2.53 a while back.

hey all, any idea what the exchange rate is at the moment, Lacking far behind here at the moment its really a mess at the moment

[mammygazzo]

Rate at Thomsons today only 2.32

Glad I only want a little, as I shall change it when I get to Icmeler
