    Watching this with great interest. Off to the USA in 2 and a half weeks. Trying to decide if we should get currency now or gamble & wait a while.
    Good luck....

    General rule is get 1/2 now and gamble with the other half :)

    Since there's no real way of knowing which way it's going to go we decided to buy our holiday cash yesterday, got 1.6550 from Crown currency for December delivery. It's only a few hundred pounds, so if the rate increases dramatically then we've notmissed out by much. Don't get the feeling that's going to happen though.:rolleyes:

    If it soars then that's OK too, as most of our spending will go on our post office card when we're over there!!:D

    Crown now offering $1.68, argh!

    It was in an e-mail they sent, I didn't go looking!!
