Since all of my money is back in a bank in America, I have to withdraw cash here from an ATM. It’s not the greatest since I have to pay extra since I’m converting to another currency and not using a Chase ATM but it’s all I have. When I get money from the ATM it give it to me in large bills. Like 50’s and 100’s. Well, this is a small town and NO ONE has change for those. Even the Supermercado wouldn’t let me pay with a 100! Some places, especially in Puylucana, can’t even change a 20. They all use 1s and 5s for the most part, and also the centimos that are like cents.
In order to get smaller bills I had to go to the bank in town. I’m intimidated by banks in America so this was slightly nerve-wracking. Noelle and I thought of the words to ask about getting smaller bills before I got to the counter and I must have said something right because he took my 100 and gave me back 10 10s, easy as pie! I’m glad I found somewhere that will actually take my large bills. It’s frustrating when we need coins for things like the bus and purchasing anything in Puylucana and can’t get any.
