    According to Bloomberg, you should have gotten a little over 3000.

    To all you lucky bastards in DR right now. The exchange rate is 1 USD to 34.45DOP. I traveled to DR 3 times last year and the best I got was 30 to 1 and THAT WAS ON MY LAST TWO DAYS IN DR

    Thanks DT, same place I got my info. It seems the currency convertors online are usually off by a few pesos from what you will get on the street.

    Re: Current exchange rate??

    When I arrived at the airport in Santo Domingo (last Sunday, March 26th), the airport had an exchange rate of 32 pesos for 1 US Dollar.

    That same day, the Intercontinental Hotel and the Jaragua Casino gave only 30 pesos for 1 US Dollar.

    Today (March 29), I stopped by a Western Union Office in Santo Domingo and they gave me a rate of 32 pesos for 1 US Dollar.

    Speaking of Western Union, there are a few hot chicks (who are receiving money) in this office. LOL

    This office is around a 5 to 7 minute drive from the Malacon.

    I have always used the yahoo currency search and found it to be the good avg rate you will find in Sosua. Santiago seemed a bit higher but not by enough to really care. I would think from when I looked today you should get no less than 32 to 1 at a cambio and possibly 32.5 if you exchanged a bunch at once. I had guys in Feb trying to give me 32 to 1 and laughed at them. Told the guy who rents motorcycles and cars I just got 34 to 1 after I left your place and went to the supermarket next to verizon. Next day I went back he tried 33 to 1. I got 34.4 to 1 at the cambio near Bailys. They should all be pretty close although I do have to admit I got the best rate exchanging at the big super market with the verizon inside it .

    Judys was closed the two weeks I was in town (8-22 March).
    Not sure if it is permanent or just temporary.
