Where is the cheapest place to buy foreign currency.

I'm off to Argentina in three weeks and will be after some pesos.


If anyone has been to Buenos Aires please feel free to contact me with advice, things to see.

Marks & Spencers give a pretty good rate.

If you are in London you can get good deals at the exchange next to Covent Garden tube station, just by the sheer volume of deals that they do they can offer a better rate than most.

The Post Office is the best. They even buy back what currency you don't use with no % fee either.
