Traveling? Find Out What You are Paying

If you are planning a great vacation to far away shores, the total price of your trip can vary quite a bit based on the foreign currency exchange rate at the time. It is a good idea to check the exchange rates well in advance, and look for projected future exchange rates as well. This will prevent unpleasant surprises that could keep you from enjoying that grand vacation!

Yahoo has an excellent currency converter with graphs that show the trends for each currency, located at finance.yahoo.com/currency. If you look at the graphs closely, you can see if the currency rises and falls at certain times of the year. This will help with planning your trip.
