Recently Thomas Cook and M&S have had the best rates on the high street, but some of the online providers often have better - googles your friend, have a hunt about.

You be careful now

They all move around but if you want to buy over the counter we have found Ramsdens Gold shops to be best normally. There are other places like Cheque Centre or The Money Shop but you can get stuck behind someone wanting £60 till paypay (when they will pay back 6 million pounds) and your life can ebb away waiting for your turn.

M&S can be good (and bad) and avoid the Post Office at all costs.

Definitely avoid the Post Office, consistently give poorest rate.

Was looking today and ASDA are best of the high street.  Pint of milk, a loaf and €500 please.

Plumped for Thomas Cooke purely as they were nearer than the others. Good rate.. Thanks once again... Wouldn't have gone if you hadn't recommended it..
