Yep, I do know that and it is good advice. Even though most out of network ATMs will charge a 3 or 4 dollar transaction fee when out of the country.

I'm just looking to get some walking around money at a discount and at the same time allow someone to conveniently unload some Euros - including coins.

I will use a credit card for most purchases since that offers the best exchange rate.
