What's the best way to change $$ into ££?

Hiya

I've been given some dollars by a family member and was wondering the best was to exchange them into pounds that will give me the most £s in my pocket. Any ideas?

Thanks

    Sell them to a friend visiting the US at a mutually advantageous rate.

    Otherwise walk round your local High Street to check who's best - it can vary from day to day.
