Where should I buy my Euros from?

How about you compare the rates offered at various banks and then choose. It's pathetic really.

When I worked at Cognos, that was always the joke.

Probably still true in a lot of companies today.

I'm not sure whether to agree with this.

Why not pick one based on its colour, body shape, top speed, the make and the 0-60 time? These are all desirable characteristics to have in a transportation device used to do the shopping.

Take account of the fact that Mrs TimberWolf will sometimes drive the vehicle. I purchased a car with parking sensors all round and a star sticking up at the front and Mrs Tester still managed to drive it into the hedge while parking at a nearby restaurant.

That's not the same thing.

I was asking where the best deal to buy currency is, not asking someone to choose which bank I go to.
