I've posted this link before, but am doing it one more time to enable the search engine to find it a bit more better.

http://indicadoreseconomicos.bccr.fi.cr ... nilla.aspx

This web page changes each and every day and lists the rate of the exchange for each financial institution in Costa Rica.

Notice the airport exchange windows:

Casa de Cambio Global Exchange 516,00

They're stealing 10% right off the top.

Not trying to devalue Brother Steven1's contribution but the same chart is "linked" every day on the front page of AMCostaRica.

I find the forum is filled with wonderful advice. Never found a better bunch of guys willing to share so much for so little. (A beer)

I use this site I picked up on from prior posts. Great for printing and putting in pocket prior to CR takeoff. Even with all the prior trips the little head still does alot of talking.
