Buying Dollars for next years Holiday

Try again,

Is anyone considering buying dollars for their next years jollies seeing the exchange rate is still high at the moment.

Or do you think its not worth it as the rate will be more or less the same or might even get better.

Comments welcome

  • Why not buy some every month after your pay day to 'average' out any highs and lows in exchange rate.

    Well I go to the US almost every year in Spring and I actually might buy some too and put it away. I've actually been buying some stuff lately from the US because the USD is at a good rate;)
