Friday Exchange rates

[will_blueprint]

I have been bored every now ant then I check the exc. rate for the hell of it... Is it me or are the rates higher on Fridays?

[vdubman30]

they would sometimes raise the rate 1 to 2 points on weekends..What did you see at today?? Rumor has it that it will surge to close to 35 to 1 but they been saying this for months now!!

[will_blueprint]

I saw 29.2 today on xe.com

[Don Tomas]

29.00-29.20 is what has been reported on DR1 lately. And those are DR rates (cambios/street)!

[Jimmydr]

29.20 is good.

[vdubman30]

could be a lot better!!

[knotty]

the exchange rate has been steady at that number for awhile. I don't see it raising any higher than where it's at now.

[gdogg]

28.00 on Envios Boya.
:?

XE says right now 28.9550.

What’s the most recent rate you’ve been getting in the DR?

I still have 2,570 pesos left from when I was there last year, then it was 37 pesos to the US$ as far as I remember, had I known this shit I’d have brought back more pesos.

Anyway, these pesos that I have left will still get me a good piece of ass in SD… :D

I was there 2 weeks ago and was getting anywhere from 28.5 to 28.95.

Dude! Super Super was paying 29.00 all week! (and we were there at the same time)

Hell I was in Santiago and still knew Super Super's rate!

When I was in Santiago last week they were paying 29 at Hotel Gran Almirante and the rate was a steady 28.9 at Western Union in Moca from Friday thru Monday.

The trick in Santiago is to go to Matum and change in a few hundred, if gambling they will give you 30-1. They play conservatively and then cash in later. Can't do it often and risk losing some money.

Anyone know the € rate for the european mongers?
Thanks.

Best to change it to dollars before you come. Atleast that is my 2 cents.

JDAlways good rates there, but you have to stay there. At least I always had to show them my room key.

? Why dollars? Yes, you can use dollars definitley more there than euros, but if you're not renting a car or something, are there places you can't just pay in pesos?

[Don Tomas]

...are there places you can't just pay in pesos?

Just shops inside the airports, they all want dollars.
