COMMENTS: You can't just change money; you have to buy something and get the difference back in change.

Here's what I think happens: Immigration notifies the financial community that I am in town, and they adjust the sol downward until I leave.

I guess I missed the memo.

Yeah, you did.

What I do with them is put them in a slot machine at Casino Atlantic City, and then cash out the voucher.

I had brought two of those suckers!
