$ Bills

I think the message is really well put across that you need small change almost from the second you land and so I am sure most people keep them from one trip to the next but imagining you don't and you arriving at the airport at a silly time, how would you get your small change for tips for a pre paid airport transfer

Previously suggested options is to ask in post office, bank, etc for some small bills

To be honest, single $$ won't get you far with either a luggage porter or driver, you are probably looking at 5 / 10

Failing that... buy a 'soda' at the airport :-)

Always buy an odd amount, instead of getting $1000 dollars, order $999

easy to get before you go I often get a few $1/$5 bills a time for the kids pocket money from tesco/asda/sains just ask

otherwise you should be able to get a soda or something cheap on arrival to change bigger notes

i find repeated visits is the easiest way. i've not got a decent collection of dollar bills and random coins for tolls/etc

If you go through "exact" line it's only coins thrown in to a basket, "change/receipts" it's a human being and they take notes (up to $20 I think).

That's what we're planning to do as we don't have any small bills left from our last trip. Think it might be a good idea to keep some from this trip though. x
