Foreign Currency Exchange at which bank?
I'm going to the US soon. Do US banks charge for a fee when you exchange foreign currency to US dollars from them? Where is the cheapest bank/place to get a good exchange rate? Thanks.

- I am European, and we can change money for a fee at any bank in my home country. The first time I arrived here to the USA, I tried to change money at several banks. They either don't do it, take several does or like they told me, I had to be a member of their bank. Duh, how the heck am I supposed to be a member if I am just a tourist???? Anyways, I would advice you to bring a credit card or cash (credit better, so you don't walk around with wads of money in your pocket). Do not expect to change foreign currency here in the USA that easy... Maybe it was that I went to Virginia, and now I live in Mississippi (where they don't have banks where you can change currency that easily).
