Exchange Rate: AUD to SGD

[adamadam]

Hello everybody.

I'm just comparing rates at the money changers here (Perth) to the ones in Singapore.

I'm quite sure that the rate will be better if I convert my Australian Dollars to Singapore Dollars in Singapore, rather than in Australia, but I'm interested to know the approximate difference. I know there are many websites online which can show exchange rates, but these usually show mid-market rates rather than the rates you can get at the local money changer - which I am interested in.

I checked at the post office here today,
AUD$1 = SGD$1.26

What's the rate at the moneychangers there?
Can you please have a look when walking past?

Thank you very much

ermm... u guys should look at the buy rate not sell rate when u check out money changers in SG (cos now the money changer is buying your AUD and giving u SGD).

It's definitely better in Singapore. I agree. The Australian tax on currency is *_______*.

I usually carry gold to Singapore.

Most camera shops will accept it.
