So now the exchange rate is at $1.91 thats the highest for ages - looks like it could go up to $2 to £1 pretty good for those of us going out soon pretty bad if your coming back to the UK with ya dollars left over
Oh I'd forgotten to think about that - but the US dollar is slightly higher than ours, so I guess it'll be funfunfun coming back! Of course, this means when I head down all my wonderful saving is going to shrink in the exchange a bit :-\
The exchange rate isn't that bad right now. I bought $200 american for $230 canadian. Five years ago it was ridiculously high and $200 american would cost you almost $300 canadian. We'd actually be better off if the exchange rate was high. That way making $7 american would be like making $10 canadian. But alas, with the current exchange, $7 american really is $7.
