[Idyllchat] Euros and ATM in Italy

[Ed Comer]

I obtained some euros by advertising in our community newsletter. 
Everyone who returns from Europe always has a few euros left, 
especially coins, and they were glad to sell them to me at the Wall 
Street posted rate. If you don't get a few ahead of time, use the ATM 
machine at the airport, or at any bank. Our apartment was near 
Buenconvento, which had a couple of banks with ATM machines. I use my 
brokerage account ATM card because they refund ALL fees, which make 
using ATMs the most affordable method of obtaining euros. Also, 
primarily for international travel, I obtained a Capital-One credit 
card because they do NOT charge a currency exchange fee for 
processing foreign charges.
