If it s a couple thousand, the difference is negligible. If it's more then 9999, you can't fly without extra paperwork.
So, maybe, just maybe, there's a situation where it makes it worthwhile.
How much different do you think the rate will be?
I have 0 clue, maybe a cent if I'm lucky. When 3000 cost more than 4000, the cheapness in me got me looking into saving a bit where I can. Losing money is expensive..This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Basically the bank is charging 1.37 so I want to look for whoever will be lower than that
Was just in Vegas last week, I don't know if there's specific places to exchange at a favored rate, but the ATM last week at the MGM soaked me for $10 USD in fees, and a couple points off the top. $200 USD cost 309.50 CDN.
Oh yeah, the ATMs are horrific.
Exchange here for sure. ATMs are a killer… $10 usd fee, plus they add 10-15 points to the rate. I went back in early October and spot rate was around 1.38. I ended up paying 1.52 which is pretty much highway robbery.
Cash cage might be a bit better but definitely not as good as calforex or canexforex in town.
Inverse Norbert's Gambit.
Cash is king in Vegas.
If you know anyone who works at a bank, ask them to exchange it fpr you. They get a better rate them joe public....
I mean if you want to do large volumes of FX transactions USD to CAD and vice versa feel free to use Norbert’s gambit if you have a trading account.
Dunno if that arb has been monetized yet.

I remember I asked the cage and they said they had no problems with it but I didn't go into particulars as I didn't need the exchange so I left. I don't think we will beat calforex/canforex tho. Seems like they are the sure way to do it.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Looking around
Wondering what became
Of what I once knew
I looked online and there are places that MIGHT save you up to $50 on $5000 CAD, but I didn't read the fine print and I assume they courier the money to you, so maybe they charge for that as well.
Calforex has an online service too, but I am pretty sure in in-store rates are better. They will do better than in-store posted rates of you have larger amounts, always worth asking, coukd save you enough for one more slot machine spin.
$20 is $20 ammirite. Ammirite?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

The only real trick here is never exchange back and forth. That’s how you really waste money.
