Peopleschampion.com gives a ‘Fistful of Dollars more’ than the High Street

Ordering your US dollars over the internet is the easiest way to give yourself more holiday spending firepower in America this summer.

Peopleschampion.com, the price comparison site, which recently signed a deal with Travelex, the world’s largest retail foreign exchange specialist, says even Clint Eastwood would be smiling if he was getting “a fistful of dollars more” by booking online.

Peopleschampion.com can save you $26 if you’re spending £1,000 on US dollars – compared with the Post Office. That’s the equivalent of a Taco Bell snack for two at Disneyland!

“Traditionally, consumers have gone to their High Street bank or the Post Office for their foreign currency, but you can save significant amounts if you book online with Peopleschampion.com. What’s the point in giving the money to the bank when you can be spending it on yourself?” says Jim Spowart, the chairman of Peopleschampion.com.

How do I get the best deal? All you do is visit the Peopleschampion.com website and type in the amount for the ability to purchase over 70 currencies in cash or travellers cheques. The site also includes a cash converter that compares rates to ensure you are getting the best rates. It’s then as easy as filling in your credit or debit card details and delivery address. It you buy over £500 worth of currency it’s delivered free to your home address – and next day too if you order before mid-day.

Or you can pick up the currency at the airport just before your flight. When you turn up at Travelex desk the currency is waiting. Travelex operates in most of the UK’s major airports and in 700 locations around the world.
