I mentioned it before but was reminded again – never select a currency other than the local currency when making purchases overseas. Trust me on this!
‘Oh Sushi charged my credit card in USD the last time I went at an ROE of 2.24 (the exchange rate that day was actually 2.44!). When I became irritated, the waitress told me that the computer did it by itself; however the time before that they did ask me what currency I wanted to pay in.
I fully concede that maybe it wasn’t her fault, but we went ahead and found a new Sushi place.
