Except that many of the vendors at IOLI are cash or personal check 
only, so having a supply of US currency for shopping in the sales 
room is essential.

However, travelers, keep in mind that not all lace suppliers can accept 
credit cards.  Small businesses can't afford the credit card charges, 
which can be as much as 75 cents per transaction.

An ATM card is the bestwe call them ATM cards in the US, it's the card
you can take to an automatic teller and get cash, most double as a credit
card.  there you have the best of both worlds...but a word of
warningIOLI has been known to empty the hotel money machines...so get at
least some of your cash at the airport.

See you there!

Lace in Peace,
Laurie
