Currency Cheat Sheets for Travelers

I am looking for a web site for wallet-sized tables for converting francs to dollars and dollars to francs.

Hello, Richard. I created my own cheat sheets when I was in Europe. I didn't need to do so in the Netherlands nor in France. However, Italy is another story. I created a cheat sheet on a small piece of paper and kept it with me at all times. I based my conversion rate on the exchange rate I received when I changed my money.

I used to make my own cheat sheets; I have an electronic hand-held calculator, too, but, Helena, that website you found is golden! Is there a little statue of you I could put up on my dashboard? This forum is a delight! As a veteran traveler, I'm glad to share my experiences; it's also wonderful to able to GET information I never thought existed!
