Foreign Currency Causes Confusion

These days, with ATM machines almost everywhere in the world and travelers' checks almost always an option, you rarely need to purchase foreign currency. In the event that you do need to exchange currencies, purchase it before you travel. At many clubs AAA has more than 100 different currencies available and, if you are a AAA member, you can purchase currencies either online or by calling a toll-free number. You should know that you could have to pay a purchase fee that is roughly five percent of the amount, and that additional penalties may be levied when you try to convert foreign currency back to American dollars. Your local AAA office is available to help you obtain the best deal on your foreign currency transaction; AAA can also provide you with information on what the most commonly accepted currencies are in each particular country.
