Exchange $$$ question

[magicland]

Going to Mexico next month, and I'm wondering whether to do the money exchange at home, at the Houston airport, or just wait until we get to Puerto Vallarta. Is one place better than another? Thanks for the help!!

I would wait until you actually arrived at your destination. If you were to exchange your money at the airport, chances are you will be getting less than fair market value. I've been to Europe many times and find that the easier places (airport) the less you get. I've only been to Mexico once and I never exchanged any money. If I used cash, they took American dollars. In fact, the prices were written in dollars. Have a great trip.
