If you're traveling to Thai ask for 500baht bills instead of 1000bt ones and you'll save urself some headaches as I reckon some places are refusing to take 1000bt note. Just some common sense.

Considering the ATM's in LOS are supposed to be giving out the fakes as well, doesn't stand much hope for not picking up a few.

500 and 100 would be best.

Yeah, I thought about that. I usually use my ATM card but I'm pretty sure the machines don't allow you the option of what size bills you want. reckon I'll have the bank guard watch me withdraw the money and then take it inside the bank to change it to smaller bills. That would really suck if you made a withdrawal and 3/4 of the money was fake. What would you do?
