Wheres the best place to exchange Can$ for US$
Got a few days break coming up in San Diego soon and need some dosh. Now in the UK I would normally pop to the Post office or Marks & Spencer for a better exchange.
Where do people do it here, I am in Calgary.
Cheers.

Use your credit card for purchases and exchange some 'loose change' money at the bank.

When in the US I carry $50 cash (usually bring it back) and use my credit card. Get it from the bank, on a few bucks a penny here or there ain't going to make much difference.

Advantage Foreign Exchange on Stephen Avenue Mall. The address is 112 - 8th Ave. SW. They always had the best rate when I checked around.
