I'll be in Europe next week and instead of using a debit card, I'm thinking of exchanging cash for Euros. What would the premium be for using cash over using a debit card?
TIA.

I'd think you'd lose some as exchange houses take a cut. I'd get a credit union card with no intl fees and you should get close to the real rate.

Use a credit card. Better exchange rate and less theft issues.

Absolutely use a card wherever you can. To the extent you need euro cash, get your debit card activated for use in the countries you're visiting and then use ATM machines. You'll get a way better exchange rate that way.

Use a debit or credit cards. You get absolutely slammed with currency exchange.

The question is "What is the premium charged for using cash instead of debit?" not which is better. I have always used debit but this has special circumstances.

5-20+% depends where you exchange. Airports/exchange places in tourist places are generally the worst. Banks generally better.

Def use a credit card with no foreign transaction fee, and if you have to have cash, just hit an ATM machine.
