Hi guys,

Sorry if this was asked before. I searched this topic but didn't get a similary query.

As a Malaysian who is going to Singapore next month for a short vacation, and to gain the most out of currency exchange, would it be better for me to:

a. Exchange minimal amount of RM -> S$ in Johor Bahru before going into Singapore, then exchanging more spending money amounts of RM -> S$ in Singapore itself.

or

b. Exchange all planned spending money RM -> S$ in Johor Bahru then spend all in Singapore.

Wondering which is the better deal.

Many thanks!

U can google for S$ money exchange to check.

Normally M'sian will change 1st at the border. Normally i will stop by at the 1st food court opp the border or Sity square..all having almost similar rate or slightly competitive but not much diff...Since u gonna change very small amt..just change only lah....0.005 diff will not save u much unless u bring in in Thousand

What I know changing in Singapore no good!

Again have to remind all that this is not a finacial related forum on advices to buy/sell currencies. This is a travel & living related forum on those going oversea & sharing of experiences on MONEY CHANGERS & NOT trading in currencies!
