I can get foreign currency from my local bank here in the states. Unfortunately, the rate they quoted seems to carry a 10% penalty compared to the published exchange rates.

I can get 28 Baht per 1 USD at my bank, vs. 31.7 Baht advertised exchange rate.

Should I do this, or will it be cheaper in Thailand?
