Our customers who love travelling come to us from all over East London and Essex for good value currency.
Many try and get away as much as possible to add to their experiences. They may wish to learn a new language, see amazing sites, or immerse themselves in a new culture. It can be an incredibly fulfilling experience, but are they really getting the most out of their travel money?
So here are some of our top tips to help our customers get the best value for money for holiday and travel money.
Getting value for money

We specialise in Pawnbroking but also provide a foreign currency service to our customers giving the best value for money when they purchase holiday money.
Leftover currency
It is often surprising that most travellers have extra money after their trip without realising it
When traveling, holidaymakers convert their Pounds Sterling into local currency to purchase items and pay for the services needed. Travellers are advised to carry extra cash as a buffer – it is the responsible thing to do in case of emergencies.
But once home, travellers forget about the leftover money. Maybe they intend to change it back but then forget or they keep hold of it to use for future travel – either way there are considerable amounts of money stashed away in people’s homes & travel bags. Imagine, after many months/years, finding a wad of foreign cash in your drawer or suitcase. Forgetting you had £300 left from a trip is actually pretty common.
But what exactly is the problem?
Well, this money tends to still be in the local currency of the country visited. Having no use for those extra Euros or US dollars they would just be a keepsake.
How to exchange foreign banknotes back to pounds?

Before deciding it’s not worth the trouble, holiday money can be turned to Sterling cash that can be used for other purposes – maybe a nice meal or to add to a savings account.
