How or when do most of you go about getting your JA dollars?
Do you use online converter sites or just withdraw it out of your account from atms there?

Oh nevermind...just visited JamCan's blog :-)

I sometimes change just a likkle at the airport just so I can use it to pay for things right away...but then I go someplace reliable to get a good exchange rate....for the rest. If you take money out of your ATM in JA your bank charges you like $3.00 and JA charges you like $6.00....so I try to avoid that also my bank here in NJ will exchange any currency for me if I give them advance notice that i need it.

i have a guy in Ochi that exchanges for me at the best rate better than the cambio.... i also transfer to my account there so i just draw it out...
