Small Bills

It is good to have some smaller US bills to buy water on the bus (1.00).  Taxi money if you go shopping at night.

Small souivners.  Bargain better with small bills.  Hold up 2.00 and say "2.00?"   If you have a 20 they will say "5.00".

So if you are able get some 1's, 5's and 10's as well as your 20's. 

Caution:  all bills are green.  Don't confuse a 20 for a 1 !!!  It happens often!

Remember the tip also to only have a small amount in your purse that you carry on the outside.  Store other cash in money belt or pouch underneath clothing.

Our preference is this belt one.  You can put on belt and flip over under your skirt or pants or you can pin to your skirt underneath by the tab section.  Holds passport as well.

  2. I found them at Pipestone Travel Store
    There are several locations in Calgary.

    You can google the locations and then call and see if they have it in stock.

    It is called Hidden Pocket
