[PyCon-AU-chat] Currency exchange

[Carina C. Zona]

Check with your credit card company as well. Mine charges just a flat 3
percent on the credit card transaction, with no minimum fee (with just
about anything else, there's usually a minimum fee of $10 it so. Ouch.)

I prefer that option vs cash anyway, since I don't wind up with leftover
cash at the end that I unnecessarily paid exchange on, and then have to pay
exchange again to turn it back to my native currency.

Cheers!
