Preparing your trip to Winnipeg: advices & hints - things to do and to obey
1. When you plan to visit stores and markets of Winnipeg, it’s better to take the local currency with you. Even U.S. dollars are not accepted everywhere. Paper money in large denominations is usually treated cautiously. Some small shops and markets may even not accept it due to inability to verify the authenticity of banknotes.
2. Money should be exchanged in banks and special exchange offices only. It is better to avoid the services of individuals. Exchange rate and size of commission may vary significantly in different banks.
3. If you expect to do a lot of shopping, you are definitely recommended to prepare special documents that make you eligible for tax returns when you will leave the country. Note that you won’t be able to obtain receipts for the goods purchased in open air markets.
