I think now is definitely the time to buy. About an hour ago, OH bought our Easter spending money (yay we've booked!!!) online from fairFX at a rate of TRY3.64. I've just had a look at the website and it's now quoting 3.54, so it seems to have dropped within the hour!

Yesterday Sainsbury's was offering 3,738, today it dropped to 3.59, still better rates than M&S or Travelex.

Looks like we've missed the boat! Have earmarked October for a visit but as haven't booked yet daren't take the risk of buying any currency and to be honest not a lot of spare cash as have the small matter of our daughter's wedding in the summer  although we are fitting in a sneaky few days in Seville in April.......booked with Nectar points!

Can anyone let me know the current exchange rate in Kalkan? Noticed in Tesco it has dropped to 3.3TL to £.
Since the elections, the lira seems to have strengthened against sterling. Coincidence?

Coincidence?

No the markets like stability and Erdogan getting re-elected promises just that.

Saw 3.52 at a shop today, didn't check the bank during the day but the Denizbank overnight rate is 3.49 - does tend to be lower overnight I think.  And the Yapikredi offerred someone we spoke to 3.45 yesterday.

Oh well, lets hope it sticks around there or thereabouts. We did manage to buy some when it was it was at 3.75 in the UK and thought we'd been robbed at gunpoint when it climbed higher after that. It quickly dropped and settled at around 3.5 and we felt better, but now I'm hoping it doesn't drop any more. Think we were getting 3.3 at Is Bank ATM Exchange last year so if it sticks around this rate we will still be getting more lira for our £ than last year - which can only be good news
