Best Exchange Rate?

[kmart]

Maybe in the wrong section here, but the missus will be joining me in the UK for Xmas this year, and she asked me about where to exchange THB for the best rate for some spending money when she arrives? Is it Bkk, or UK?

do it in thailand - it's readily available and a better rate of exchange

At the airport, or high st. bank?

You will get the true rate at a bank in any street avoid changing at airport at all cost

Actually I've had perfectly good rates at the Bkk old airport - haven't needed top change anything at the new one yet

alternatively you could hang around arrivals and spy out the Brits. Offer them a good rate of exchange with no commission

THat works...I've done it!
