Be sure to choose their Buying Rate, not the Selling Rate
You should check around. Last winter we found that the banks were consistently giving a better rate for CDN than any of the cambios.Quote:

On the other hand, the cambios seem to have the better rates for USD.
Scotiabank

Just ordered mine on Wednesday from scotiabank 100 Ja =97.73
I never buy it here at home. I always take some Jamaican dollars home so that on my return I have enough for a few days. The rates in Jamaica are much better than here.Quote:

Unless you have a business, the only rate to think about is the BUY rate.
I suppose you could write a check, but it would take 28 days to clear....
If you always want the best exchange rate possible, use the ATM.
Yes that’s correct. Almost .98Quote:

P.s. go blue go !!!
Always use the atm at scotiabank. Do you happen to know what the current rate is? Just curious how it compares to the rate I just got at my home scotiabank.Quote:
