| Following coronavirus fears, AU$ currently down 0.5 per cent to 65.34 US cents... the lowest level since March 2009. |

| Yeah, and you can't buy it for that much either. Currently getting it for about .62c. When I started putting USD aside for my trip next month I was getting it at around .66-.67c |

I keep an eye on the trends and just keep a steady $5k on my card, useful for purchases too

That’s why flights are so cheap too. Travelling here this year, if I get sick I’d rather be in an Aussie hospital! Actually I just want to plan my dream trip next year so hubby gets his caravan dream this year!

1 AU$ = 57.9c US.
Maybe time for Nicksters to cancel those US holidays.  |

Try finding somewhere to cash in USD, they're apparently not giving a rate so the few hundred USD I have I'm stuck with for the time being.
My cash card however made me a nice little return on the conversion $$$  |

17 million tonnes of Iron Ore a week exported @ $A160/tonne is the only thing saving our arse at the minute!
$A2.72 billion a week, I see why they want us to stay in production!

Do you mean that if you walk into a bank with US cash, they won't convert it??   |

Haven't tried a bank as yet, only a travel money place. Wouldn't convert. |
