todays exchange rate

[2Tiggies]

Just received $1000 dollars from Crown Currency this morning at $1.54.(Ah, the smell...it's so Florida!)

It's one of the good smells of Florida though

Love it! They arrived at 9 this morning. My kids have finished school now because they all had exams; so I went and woke them up telling them to smell the dollars!!
Poor DD has really bad hayfever and couldn't smell anything!!

The interbank rate has pushed up above 1.50 again this evening - here's hoping it can continue to improve

 

[PamOKW.]

Interbank means the rate traded between banks - it's not a place as such that customers like us can access. It's useful for knowing where the real price of the currency is though to assess how a good a deal on offer is.
Generally travel agents/bureaux de change rates are a few cents below the interbank rate (if you're buying that is, they are well above if you're selling), other methods like Fairfx and the like have more competitive rates.
Then there's good old Crown Currency whose rates seem to come from somewhere I don't understand

Thanks for explaining it - no wonder I couldn't find it anywhere!!!!!! feel very foolish now!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, you were clever enough to ask about it. Now think if it had been somewhere you could get a good deal - you would have been all the wiser.

Good to see the $ is pushing close to 1.51 this morning. You can now get an August delivery from Crown currency at 1.51 which is the highest it has been for ages.

I turn the corner past the Cheque Centre in the morning on my way to the office with bated breath - willing it to be up from the day before. Good that it seems to be holding its own now.
