Dollar rate up Buy or wait

Noticed dollar rate up to $1.31 this evening. Not sure if the pound will strengthen more. This will hopefully bring the cost of theme park tickets and car hire down. Plus a chance to buy some cheaper dollars

Theme park tickets are quoted in GBP (if you are buying them in advance of course in the UK which is the most cost effective option for longer ticket type) so this will make no difference what's so ever.

I’ve changed £400 today as it’s at the best rate that I’ve seen in a while. We don’t go for another 4 weeks and still need some more $’s so hopefully it will continue in the right direction!

Yes they are but ultimately bought from the USA by uk agents. Stronger pound leads to cheaper tickets..

We’d all like to think so, but odds on it wont happen.
