Members Walker Posted July 4, 2018 Members Share Posted July 4, 2018 When I paid my hotel bill in CDMX, the staff actually made a point that I was getting a 10% discount by paying with credit card in Mexican Pesos. I sure did not complain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure did not complain. I notice that everywhere now. The machine asks if you want to pay in the local currency or US dollars. Of course if you choose US dollars the exchange rate is worse than the other choice. Such a scam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Lucky Posted July 28, 2018 Members Share Posted July 28, 2018 Ever since this thread was posted the real has been getting stronger. $1 now buys 3.37 reais On July 1 it was 3.88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Riobard Posted July 28, 2018 Members Share Posted July 28, 2018 I realize there is some minor change, but are you certain that much.? My currency converter indicates 3.71 today, not 3.37 Anyway, I bought 5,000 when the rate seemed optimal recently. Furthermore, I compare the current rate to the 10-year average for a true sense of relative value. Today the latter is 2.48 (high 4.25; low 1.53) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
