Where do you go for your travel money at the moment?

Plenty of people want to send it to your door, or stick it in your local branch.

Last time I looked (in May) the Pee Off wasn't very competitve, but on my first check they're a better rate than my banks, credit cards and Thomas Cook! (Only wanting Euros this time...)

If its europe you are going to then wait till you're there and get it direct from a local bank.

Only problem with getting it overseas is that most of the banks charge you for withdrawing it! Best to check how much first.

Check out M&S, they were very good earlier in the year. Don't forget, you'll need ID such as a passport if you're not buying with cash.

I'd charge more than that if I were you!
