I'm looking to buy some Brazilian currency but was informed today by my local bank that no Irish bank deals in this currency. I'm only looking for a small amount (€200) to give to my sister who is heading over there in a few weeks.
I was in Brazil last year and there was no where here I could get them! had to change €€ in the airport over there... someone recommended Thomas Cook, but the one I checked didnt have them
If you can't get them, I got my cousin UK£ and US$ when she went travelling - esp useful if you have to travel through Heathrow. And US$ are handy just about anywhere.
