I need 7 Euros. My bank doesn't do this, and no other bank will help me out since I am not a customer. Where do I need to go? US Customs possibly?

I am not sure but the Exchange Counters in the international airport terminal may be able to help you.

No, do not go around with wads of cash, it's dangerous and if you get robbed, you have lost all your money. And that could happen very very easily. Contact your bank about getting the right card for the ATMs, then you can withdraw cash in the local currency of the country you are in, and the equivalent is deducted from your bank account at home. Better to withdraw the highest amount you can per day per country, in some places it's 500 Euro, in others it's 300. You look at the symbols on your card, and if the ATM has one or more of the same symbols, you should be able to use your card on it without any problems. Cirrus, Plus, Eurocard are three of the most common. Tell your bank when you are going, and where, so that you won't arrive over and find that your card has been blocked, and be sure to bring an emergency number just in case you have problems with it. Don't use your card for small payments, many places don't do that anyway, cash is handiest. And bring a Visa or MasterCard for big expenses. You still have a few weeks before you travel, so I suggest getting on to your bank about the ATM card right away, so you're sorted in good time.

I would support the answer to go to the most touristic place nearby - or do you have anybody you know that has been to Europe lately?
Perhaps it would be more sensible, simply to send 20 dollars than looking and asking around...? In Germany it's easy to exchange dollars, but there are fees to do so...
By the way: Euro notes exist in demoninations of a minimum of 5 Euro only - the 1 and 2 Euro coins are quite heavy...

If you have a International airport nearby they have (in the International terminal) a currency converting station. If you go to them, they will give you the most current daily exchange rate. It's what the international travelers use. They will have Euros for you!!!

you should probably go to the airport and find a place where exchange money,where i live in south africa you can actually find those places in any major shopping mall.the only problem i think you might have is,they normally want to see a plane ticket.

Any airport has a currency exchange. Remember though you will not get a great exchange rate.

Do you have American Express? You can order foreign currency (including euros) with your American Express card.

go to a touristy place and ask for europeans who are willing to change their euros for your dollars.
