Damn exchange rate... the $US is rising against the $NZ again, grrr... I just ordered US$550 and it cost me NZ$800. Ouch!!!

Remind me to use my Visa card as much as possible... Actually thats a thought, is it best to use cash or credit cards for everyday purchases in the US?

The problem is that with the upcoming election in NZ, the exchange rate is falling and will continue to do so up until the elction, which is at the end of my stay in the US. Best to exchange *now* and avoid the upcoming crap exchange rates...
