different than last summer, at least. I hope the state you are in
(it does
vary from state to state here) is cheaper and that you have obtained enough
to get you through the first day. Don't expect to use a credit card for B
& Bs, although many may take it. If you are in a large enough town, shop
at different banks for your exchange rate....they do vary.
I wonder if we're looking at two different things? (Or if you need to
switch banks) :-) The price for a British Pound in US Dollars, as I write
this is $1.4997. If it closes there it will be the third 52 week low set
this week. It has been dropping steadily since my original post. The 52 week
high for the Pound is $1.6790 and that's a significant difference. I track
it on Yahoo's finace page:
