how much money to take

Going to borovets 1st week in march, is it best taking enough money (levs) for whole week, or is it easy enough to get money while your there, i.e. from cashpoint!!!
And can you pay for stuff with euros - as I have loads of those left over from last holiday...

thanx

Lev's only in resort. There are a few cash machines so that's an option, or take sterling and change in the banks/exchange. Much better rates there than here

Change out there mate not over here as you will lose big. Plenty of cash points.

as fo how much well depends on what your planning. We were out bar 2 nights. Last year we spent £80 each ..... this year £250. but in france that yould have been £750.

And our £250 includes the 45 minute shot and cocktail binge on Friday night which cost £75 for about 25 drinks!
