## Resource

Going cashless on vacation? Think again—your card might be costing you more than you realize. Hidden fees, poor exchange rates, and surprise charges can add up fast. Travel pros say Brits still make costly mistakes abroad, like ignoring local currency options or not preparing for cash-heavy cultures. Always pay in local currency, know tipping customs, and check your bank’s fees before you fly. A little local cash and a travel-friendly card can save you money and stress—even in cash-friendly places like Germany and Greece.
