Note that credit cards are debited in Canadian dollars. Exchange rate |
|
throughout most of 2008, between US and Canadian |
|
dollars, is close to 1:1. A few credit card companies take an extra |
|
percent or so for foreign transactions. Use the card with the best policies |
|
in this regard. In any case there will generally be some small fluctuations |
|
in the total that appears on your credit card statement, and it is not |
|
possible to predict the total to the absolute penny, if your card is |
|
denominated in US dollars or some other currency. |
