CASAS de CAMBIO-SHOP/COMPARE- and save 5% or more!


On Sat. Feb. 20, 2010

On the above date I checked many cambio casas:

I checked Monygram: 1.760
Note: I always check them because they are in my favorite supermarket...and they ALWAYS offer the poorest prices.

In El Centro the COP CAMBIO prices per one dollar were:

 
1.820
 
 
1.820
 
 
1.830
 
 
1.840
 
 
1.840
 
 
1.850
 
and one Casa de Cambio offered:
1.860
 
I changed $790 u.s. at 1.860 and received:
1.469.400
 

With the International company I would have received 1.390.400. . . a LOSS OF:   cop79.OOO

Sooooo, in a short healthy walk, and 20 minutes time, I saved more than 5%, using a local Cartagena company.
In this declining world economy, (caused mostly by governments-starting with the u.s. govt.) every Peso saved, helps!

There is no use in me telling you the name and location of the Casa because the rates and Casa's can very frequently.

Do Your Own DUE DILIGENCE...enjoy walking around beautiful Cartagena.... you will be safe. Have fun, and $AVE!

Regards,
Jim
