Favorite thing: I usually have my chinese friend change my money or else I go to a gold shop.
Usually gold shop will give you a better rate.
1 Go online and check the current exchange rate. Do your math to know how much you will get
2 Then go to gold shop and show them some money. They will jot down the rate they are willing to give, then show them how much you want to change ( they prefer new, clean large banknotes) they will use calculator to show you how much you will get
3 if you agree with that, make your transaction. They should count it in front of you. I've never had a problem
Fondest memory: If you have money left over, its useless outside of VN, except you can sell it on ebay or give a souveniers
