I've always found ATM's to be a place to get a good exchange rate.   Banks have access to the best exchange rates.  ATM charges a fixed fee, and your card fee is known ahead of time.      So for example, ATM fee ~$2, and card issuer fee between 1.0 to 3.0% depending on your issuer.    Compare this to a  typical 10% airport exchange cost.     If going this way, you should tell your bank ahead of time of your travel plans, else you may set off the automatic security flag and accidentally get your card shut off.

I always used <http://eurochange.cz/kudy-k-nam/> when in Prague. 20 
minutes by foot (ca. 1 mile) from Hilton or Intercontinental.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
