When I visited, that always got me...

In America, a number 3 meal at mcdonalds would be like $3.99, but in London, it was 3.99 pounds... So I'd pay almost double for the same shit...

Oh well, I made it back in mexico over the break!

We got the Euro in many European countries. Real convenient in the sense that you don't have to exchange currencies most of the times when going abroad. Right now 1 EUR is about 1.04 USD. Just so you know...

naww not quite. coz the UK is part of the union but not part of the currency... not all EU members use, or want to use the currency. there are specific requirements for entering the currency.. some good some bad.. the UK is waiting... some countries are begging to meet the requirements but cant - yet.

Canada has basically the same prices at the US, shit's cheap here.
