trouble using it but I'd look into the conversion rate your bank may charge, it's usually quite competitive but I've only been
changing from US dollars.

Just wondering - with regards to my USA trip - I was thinking of not bringing any cash at all, and just paying my spending money off my visa. It will be a great help for tax purposes etc, and I rarely carry cash here any more, I usually use EFTPOS for everything. How widely accepted is VISA in the States? Are you able to pay taxi's etc with VISA? Or should I carry some cash with me? What about on GFM? Are there any teller machines that will allow me to withdraw cash from my VISA? I have a pretty large purchase that I will be making whilst I am over there and will need to get my hands on at least USD$650 whilst I am on the mountain (or beforehand to bring with me)....
