The worst is to swipe your CAD credit card in the US. Both VISA/Mastercard and your bank will skim profits every time you swipe your card.

非常简单,到BMO办理一张美金账户Mastercard ,到美国直接可以刷卡,没有兑换汇率的损失,没有每次刷卡的手续费,回来后自己看哪天汇率比较好,去兑换美金,还回去就好了。非常好用,千万不要使用加币账户的信用卡到美国刷卡,那个手续费和汇率等到账单来了你会发觉黑你没商量。visa 的手续费是每笔数1.76元(如果你买东西退货,这边手续费是不退的。) % @1 X: t' t( D.
