no fair. i want to buy so much stuff from here but i dont have any US dollars. i only have Philippine pesos. i want to buy!

its not fair, when people buy stuff from me they send it in US dollars and i still have to change it to peso. Why cant i send it in peso.

i wish the world had only one currency

sorry i have to whine. dont bother with me.
i'm in a very whiney mood today.
*apologizes*

athena > when you buy something from laundro where do you change your money? peso to dollar? the bank.

*looks for leftover dollars from the trip last year....yay! i found 6 quarters = $1.50*

edited cause im dumb. lol.

Just go to the bank dear When I got back from Mexico I had a lot of mexican money left so I just went to the bank and exchanged it. The currency rate sucks sometime though.

hehe

usually I just keep the US $$ I get and sent it out to buy other stuff.

but, I'm lucky, I got my personal bank hehe. I sometimes exchange US$ for Aussie dollors with my mum, cos she's planning to visit america eventually, so we both skip the bank fees.

rosanna, i use the $ i get from zine orders and from auctions to pay for stuff i want. if it's a big non-auction order, i exchange pesos with my dad because he has an account at an american bank. but yeah, it totally sucks because the exchange rate is soaring.. if you auction something off you can charge less and less for it but if you want to buy something you're spending even more! argh! also, i think the exchange rate is responsible for slowing the mail down.. everything i get these days was sent like a month ago.

my mom said that because of all the bombings,the abu sayaf and milf thing the economy is getting really bad since the foreigners are pulling out their money.
but the higher it gets the better. lol.

yeah, it went up to 45 at the beginning of '98.. then it went down, and it was doing okay for awhile but then the hostages were taken. that week it went WAY down. you could really see the drop in the chart in the inquirer. but yeah, it means the money people send us is worth more. it's probably a good idea to exchange it now before it stabilizes!
