You can do that at the bank.

For a fee though. When I exchanged at the airport I lost like $50. I assume if I were to exchange $450 it would cost around $25

Any chance you might be interested in exchanging your Canadian dollars for Botswana pula?

um, are you converting it on a website like google or something?

they usually give you the STANDARD rate.

but places like the airport charge not only a flat fee but you lose something like 3% as well.

it's STANDARD PRACTICE everywhere.

it's almost impossible to get an actual proper exchange when you're dealing with exchanging money

Are you talking to me or the post above? I know you lose money when you exchange at a legitimate place, hence why I made this thread asking for someone to do a straight exchange. I also exchanged with someone so mods can close the thread if they want.
