Love to Travel? Love Cash? Join the #TravelCash Twitter Chat!

June 16, 2015 By Lena

We like to travel. A LOT. And with each and every trip, the list comes out.

My husband hates the list.

The list includes everything that we need to oversee, pack and manage before we leave for the airport. I create a spreadsheet, assign responsibilities, and include a column for ticking off once complete. It may sound incredibly cumbersome (or, to quote the husband, “overkill”) but I’ve been that mom. You know, the mom who realizes that she forgot to pack baby wipes. Or hairspray. Or birth control.

You’ve met my second son Reid, right? Ri-ight.

Yes, it’s on the list, but it often gets overlooked or marked “later” during the flurry of activity. And then, more often than not, I find myself glaring at my husband as we rush to find last-minute foreign currency. Surely there has to be an easier way?

THERE IS! Introducing CIBC Foreign Cash Online. This incredibly convenient service allows me to order the currency I need online (yes! online!) before I travel – and the money is delivered straight to my door. 

Here’s where you need to pay attention: even non-CIBC customers can take advantage of this time-saving service. CIBC Foreign Cash Online provides customers with innovative and convenient ways of ordering/receiving their foreign currency. They are the ONLY financial institution to offer this complete suite of delivery options. With CIBC Foreign Cash Online, you have access to over 70 currencies. Delivery can be made to your home or to Toronto Pearson Airport location (T1 international departures, post security).

Think about it: you’re constantly waiting in lines when it comes to travel. CIBC believes you shouldn’t have to wait in line when purchasing your foreign cash. Now that’s smart.

So what’s in it for you – besides security, convenience and peace of mind? Register before July 6th, 2015 you’ll be automatically entered to win $1000 at CIBC Foreign Cash Online! What a great way to begin your next travel adventure.

To kick off the summer travel season the #FamilyTravelCA crew is having a CIBC #TravelCash Twitter Chat on Thursday, June 25th at 9PM EDT. We’ll be discussing prepping for travel during the fun-filled, fast-paced hour and of course, we have prizes!

    Wow, I just checked this out and this is completely awesome. We just returned from Jamaica had such a difficult time getting smaller US bills before we left. This service would have made it much easier for us and less time consuming. Interested to hear more. Thanks
