Better to take euros or use cashline card in Spain?

We rarely use cash on hols - just use PO Credit Card.

But need -say-about £100 for markets and sundries and stuff.

Should I get cash in the uk and convert to euros - or just use normal cashline machine in Spain and get euros there?

Use the ATMs in Spain you will get a better rate or get a Caxton euro card and load it up before you leave,then you can withdraw the cash in euros at any ATM.

For £100 the difference will be very small, so do whatever is easiest. Using an ATM with an average UK debit card will probably give you a better rate than exchanging cash at a typical high street place like the Post Office.

Thanks guys. I'll just use the machines then. Much easier - as I leave tomorrow and havent been *rsed to get any euros here!
