willing292 Posted May 21, 2014 #5 Share Posted May 21, 2014 [quote name='matj2000'][SIZE=3]Why not just use a credit card??[/SIZE][/QUOTE] Because lots of markets and small shops don't take credit cards. It's a little hard to haggle on the price of something if you're not dealing with cash. We always take travellers cheques on long cruises so that we don't have to carry a lot of cash.

Several years ago on a land-based Caribbean vacation we were happy to have traveller's checks. A power outage that lasted several hours meant that ATM's were not working, credit cards could not be used at many places, etc. Our hotel was happy to cash a traveller's check by just writing our room number on the back of the check ...... we were able to eat dinner, get a cab, etc. without any problem!

Good idea about carrying travellers cheques though. Edited May 21, 2014 by Missus Makkem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
