Every time I´m about to go to a holiday, I take whatever savings I have at paypal and place them in my credit card. I save all my online earnings and use them for my only luxury: traveling.
In this occasion, I discovered that I had a bit over $200. I withdrew $200 that will be $195 after fees. That is a nice extra amount of cash to use during my week at the Iguazu falls next month. Did I tell you that we will stop for a day at Buenos Aires on our way back?
I am already excited with this oncoming trip

Pay Pal earnings are special when you save them for a special purpose.

I used to have a current account that had no fees on foreign spending however last August the building society closed all their current accounts. When I paid off my mortgage last June Nationwide Building Society offered me a zero percent spending credit card. It hasn't got any fees on foreign spending. However the deal was for 12 months o the great deal is ending soon. I used it to book flights and then paid off the money. Now I have an Amex cards. I don't like having to pay a 2.99% fee for foreign spending on that. Enjoy your trip.

You know before we came to visit you Marguicha we visited beautiful Buenos Aries and afterwards we had a lovely time at Iguazu Falls. On the side in Argentina we found was rustic and amazing looking. Over the other side in Brazil it looked more modern and pretty. We noticed a bird park so we went to have a look around it. We continued up to Rio the Easter weekend. We got short of time and had to take and flight and an overnight bus back to Buenos Aries. It was wonderful to see you in Chile. We have happy memories of that trip.

@maximax8 
. I have been at the Iguazu falls several years ago. I liked better the Argentina part of the falls although in Brazil the fall looked bigger. We will not go to Rio, but I will be a day in Buenos Aires on our way back.

Thanks, Maxine. I have tried to use as much as I can my money to travel. A couple of years ago, we went with Leticia fir a week to Buenos Aires just with the travel agency prices associated with my Bank.

We Indians cannot keep our money in paypal. It gets automatically transferred to our account.

It is quite different. I would probably spend my money in a loaf of bread if pay pal gave me my mylot money every month.

@Courtlynn And I´m so happy that I had around $200 in my pay pal account. I don´t count with that money. It is for extras.

@marguicha glad you liked 
I use my paypal money to buy things I need online, mainly for my kids as school materials, books and clothes.

I might even invite my friends for lunch on my birthday, if I have enough money.

It was. The money I earn online is too little to invest. But I save it for vacations and it is very nice.

@marguicha There is no amount of money in my world not worth investing.

Oh that is great to know!
But here in India, auto-withdrawal is set for PayPal and hence we can't save amount in PayPal.
Do share some pictures of the places where you make the trip to.
