Is cash still preferred over credit cards in SXM? I always thought cash assured you a better chance of 1:1.
Cash is usually the only way to get 1:1. What Scubaman was saying is that you get whatever the prevailing exchange rate is if you use your credit card and ask that the charge is put through in Euros. Otherwise, most establishments have their own exchange rate, and it's often higher than the prevailing one.
