going to Pamporovo tomorrow, was going to get money out of the ATM at the airport in Plovdiv when i get there. is this a good idea or should i bring Lev with me?re: money

YYYEEEEEEHHHAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

The rate was 2.75 to the GBP and 1.92 to the Euro. Most hotels were slightly less. There is a machine in the lobby of the hotel oppisite the white hart and alaska supermarket, if working will be better again 2.84 ishre: money
Isn't alsn going to Boro? With his lusk it will probably be Middlesborore: money
just checked out money through uk banks no-good.Last year i took cash and changed up daily ,usually got 2,75 to 2.80 in boro. Hsbc will give me 2.61 in uk with no fee. Try to avoid atm's as you will be charged 2% fee there and possibly another 2.75% handling fee by the credit or debit card..make yer choice honey, buyt either way enjoy. And lets hope we have some snow for me for next saturday
