When I went to Canada it was opposite. I'm confused now. Maybe it's changed since I went. Your visit was more recent.

Do any of you realize that the exchange rate changes every day?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

What's worth more usually stays the same, though. Right?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Usually, but not always. Right now they are both pretty well on par with eachother, before the recession, american dollars were usually worth about 1.08 canadian dollars, during the recession, it fell as low as 1 american=.8 canadian, if I'm not mistaken. So it can fluxuate a lot, but usually not in short time spans.

It's actually been changing by small amounts on a daily basis. I remember about a month ago, I checked the exchange rates, and .98 USD was about 1 CAD, and then about 3 days later, it was pretty much the opposite.

Yeah, but 95% of the time USD is worth more.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Its colorful so you can tell which bill it is. When Im in the states it takes me a while.

I was there this week christmas shopping and it took me five minutes to pay each time because I had to search through my money to find certain bills.

Any money is more exciting than American money.

American money: it's green and has a dead guy on it. Other money: it actually has color and artistic design.

Hong Kong Dollars are my personal favorite. They even have little holographic images! http://www.weirdasianews.com/images1/money.jpg

Canadian money is going to be getting holographic maple leafs based on nano technology.

Canadian money has monograms presently.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Yeah, but they aren't very appealing, they kinda look like foil strips on the sides, and the new ones are way cooler.

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Well then, it seems as if the Hong Kong Dollar's going to have some compitition . . .

I think euros are pretty cool. The banknotes and the coins. All the banknotes have a different style of architecture printed on them from different time periods and regions, so it's pretty interesting.
