Don't think you have SAGA over there. It's a hmm.....club I guess, for the over 50s. I have a VISA card form them that has no cross border or cross currency fees and a fair percentage rate.
Anyone doing any international travelling needs to check what their cards are going to hit them with and maybe try for a different card.
My own bank charges 2.75% for each international transaction plus an additional £3 / $4.80 for any cash withdrawals from an ATM.

As posted previously, Capital One Visa has no fees and the straight daily rate to the nearest ten thousandth of a cent.
Whatever I suggest here should be given ample time for a moderator to delicately correct. I apologize in advance.

I love the shirt! Oh, and I took the koozie to my knit shop yesterday and they loved it. They did wonder that I belonged to a Naked group however. :oops:

I have moved more and more to long sleeved shirts. both warmer in the winter, and protects your arms on hot summer days

Thank you ALL for the kind word on the shirts and Koozies. A friend of mine does the work for me and he can put almost any picture on a variety of swag (not just koozies)! Not expensive either.
If anyone would like stuff done, he can do one to a thousand. Shipping on large lots MAY be an issue, but we could work on that ....
