Ok thanks. Something to keep in mind if I ever wanted to grab some. I very very rarely step into a bank though.
Just ask at the bank. Mine usually has atleast $200 worth when I go their a few days before a TTR trip
As for tips i usually start the day off by tipping $20 each day at the pool bar as that is where i spend most of my time. All of the bartenders know who has tipped and when its rush hour they ask you what you need first . They also will make me 30 shots if i ask for them. They know they have been taken care of. That being said the bar staff at the pool was kinda blah last time so i skipped a couple days tips. The paty o had the best bar tenders and i usually drop a $20 every other day or so and smaller amounts in between. 1 time during the 10 days i will tip the hamburger guy $10 or so also as hamburgers are good drunk food. In the restaurants (breakfast, lunch) i will tip a couple bucks and then once during my stay a $20. In the fine restaurants i leave a $10 or $20 for the group of us ... On the way into the resort i usually tip the bellman as well this way if your room isnt up to your liking (they tried to put me facing the street once) they will make it right... These are what i do . Wet $1 dollar bills at the pool seems silly even if you plan on tipping $5 or $10 just get it out of the way in my opinion they appreciate that..
For sure they will... They are great people .. I guess i never adressed flying with cash i usually bring around 900 in cash for 10 days and i usually dont need the atm..
I use US money for Boobs Cruise. Canadian money for USA Transfers. Then pesos for everything else. If I were from the U.S. I would stick with that or pesos. It's just that the Canadian dollar sucks so bad right now we lose WAY to much converting to US money. Nikki
