Exchange USD to PESOS in MICROCENTRO?
Hello All.
Will be staying near the Florida Street and the Marriot Hotel.
Where do you recommend me to exchange my USD? Whats the closest place?
Thank you
Never exchange in baggage area!
As has been mentioned numerous times on this thread before, use the bank that is at the airport just outside of security, around corner to the right as you exit. Enough said as it has been mentioned many many times before.
Happy Mongering All. Toymann
PS: Go get em' Gato Hunter
Where to cambio on a Sunday night
My bank put a fraud hold on my ATM card because I used it in Paraguay. It will be lifted in the morning, but I am needing mongering funds asap. Best part is I told them I was going to Paraguay.
I have crisp Ben Franklins. Where can I turn these into pesos tonight?
The best way to break AR$100 notes
[QUOTE=Lothario;413131]Sounds like these are difficult to cash in BA?
Exchanging money here in Australia the banks can only give me pesos in $100 notes as they can't source any lower denominations.
Whats the best way to break these when I get to BA?
Will a bank swap some $100 pesos for smaller notes when I arrive?

Is to use them (almost anywhere other than a taxi or kioski). If you are at a restaurant or bar, etc. If you have 20s and 50s in your pocket when paying for lunch or dinner, break out the 100 note(s). I have never had trouble getting change back at privados (although one should go in with exact change on hand).
If you haven't already purchased pesos in Ausiland, I'd suggest waiting until you get to Bs As and hit the ATMs (somewhere in this thread there is info on the best ones at EZE). Depending upon your mode of transport from EZE to your destination, you may get a few smaller bills in change.
Changing currency other then dollars and euros
I have found that most places give reasonable rates for dollars and euros for example. But I have found in trying to change pounds or mexican pesos (for example) that the rates can be absurd (and not in your favor) One place I have found in the city (Other then Banco de La Nacion in the airport) is on the corner of Maipu and Tuccaman near the Florida street tourist trap. The place is a tourist agency and money exchange. No commision, good rates, but they do require your passport or DNI.
Canadian Dollar Exchange at Airport Banco de La Nacion
[QUOTE=Lothario;413202]Have already exchanged the money here in Oz because I wasnt sure whether I would get a good rate for the aussie dollar from the banks in Argentina. I got a fairly good rate here, but will go to the Banco de La Nacion when I land at the airport and change for some smaller notes.[/QUOTE]Hi:
Can anyone tell me if they will exchange Canadian dollars at the airport Banco de La Nacion?
Thanks
