    Use Jamaican dollars while in Jamaica. It's the easiest way to go, and it exercises the brain a bit with the mental conversion calculations. As Accompong said, don't exchange money on the black market (guys on the street), you are only asking to get ripped off.
    Here is a link to the Bank of Jamaica website, showing US dollar to JA dollar average exchange rate over the years. (First year I went to Jamaica, $1 US got you $1.78 JA). You could find a nice place to stay for $20 or $30 JA back then.
