The Frugal Traveler's Card

Q: I'm traveling to Europe in a few weeks to watch some actual football and drink table wine that's better than most $100 bottles here. Trouble is, the banks will kill me anytime I buy something with their foreign exchange fee.

Is there a way I can make purchases abroad that will minimise my foreign exchange and annual fee loss?

Cheers, Nigel

A: Glad you are taking a vacation from puritan America, though you spell like a Brit. But don't forget one very American card when you go.
