I'm certainly avoiding US products as much as possible. I absolutely will not spend a dime in their country and this isn't a temporary thing. Hell, just yesterday I was looking up Canadian alternatives for car detailing products lol.

I'm being a bit of a traitor, but we might do a 3 month stint in Phoenix starting November or December, that's really to get away from the shit winter weather though.

Outside of that I haven't been taking any trips down to Seattle/Portland like I'd normally do this time of year.

Elbows up baby.

That reminds me, I still need to exchange my USD for Japanese Yen. I think the rate was pretty good lately.

I used Wise to exchange USD for YEN. It works great to hold currency. Tho downside is japanese ATMs require a minimum W/D of 10,000 Yen LOL. Wise works as a cash card as well tho, so combini the shit out of it.

I used my Rogers World Elite MC in Japan and for some reason there was no FX fee on all my transactions. I bought something in USD as well yesterday and there was no fee again. It’s weird, as far as I know there should be a FX fee on the card

Perhaps moderators should lock the thread.

How's your DVD-ROM, whitev70r?

That is true. He's got a lot of young people taking his life's work to the next level.

I'm still genuinely curious about your DVD ROM.

I think that's one of the features of the cards -- no forex fees on foreign currency transactions, plus you get some % of cashback as well.
