| do it in the US before you get to europe, its usually a better rate, if not then avoid the touristy places and airports when it comes to exchanging money |

Because your title was not specific enough the first 19 people could have thought there was an answer within the thread. Perhaps "Currency Exchange?" or "What is the best way to convert USD to EUR?"
No need to catch an attitude, its just in poor taste. Especially with their only being 19 views at the time. I see answers take hundreds of views sometimes.
To add to PvDoBseSSioN's statement, check with your bank. Some have a 3% conversion rate, others 1%. Some it depends on the purchase. I would much rather use my bank card and use reputable ATM's than carry all my cash for the whole trip. |

Was just being sarcastic and trying to 'bump' the thread. We decided on using our bank card for our trip. |

Be careful of ATM skimming, its rampant in Ibiza. With that being said, I would much rather take my chances with a debit card than with cash.
