todays exchange rate

[disneyholic family]

the US economy is in the toilet, so normally the dollar would be weakening..

but the entire world is going to hell in a handbasket and so the world is running to the dollar for cover....

I was going to top up a bit this week on my FairFX card. Now to be honest, just a little is only going to be a difference of a bit of change - less than $10 for me with the drop in the rate since a couple of weeks back - but so funny how it makes you think. I have decided that I probably have more than what I need so since I will have my laptop with me, if it comes to that I can always top up online while there. I am very wary of buying in panic. It usually invites a sudden increase in the rate right after

We were very happy with credit card purchases, best rate I could have got before flying was $1.60 and that was only with a bit of bargaining. rate on CC averaged $1.63. best rate was for our biggest purchase, Ipad 2, for that went thru at $1.64189

Looks like a cliff at 12 noon after the bank of England announcement, £75billion quantitative easing, it was never going to help the exchange rate http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business/market_data/currency/11/12/intraday.stm

 

[crabbie1]

Oh no any hope of a little increase

Very surprised it gained most of its 12 noon loss today. Could have been worse.
