Is there a bank or something where I can get euros on the spot today?
Edit: Can't seem to get them anywhere on the spot. No banks I called or AAA has it. You have to order them. You can get them overnight for the next day delivery.
Thank you for your help though, I appreciate it
They're called gyros
You're gonna need to call ahead and make sure. The bank my wife works at generally doesn't have any unless someone exchanges what they had for USD earlier that day.
I’ve had luck with same day foreign currency at TD Bank. I’d call a few and ask.
I know Wells Fargo does euros, pounds, and a few others, but I'm not sure if you have to be a member or not so you might want to call ahead and ask if there's a fee or if it's available to non members
Check your closest AAA location as well, I’ve used them in the past.
Wherever you’re going you can probably use your debit card to get euros at the best exchange rate…
Airport currency exchange?
Do they have that at Bradley?
Quick search says Bradley no. Providence Boston NY yes.
Also I think they have them at Grand Central if you want to take a train ride.
Thanks bot boy
Airport?
If you are traveling and can wait until you get to your destination most airports in Europe will have a Bureau de Change or setup your ATM card so you can withdraw monies that way. You will get the best exchange rate. American banks will have a high rate of exchange plus other fees.

Call any bank, most big ones will have €500-€1000 on hand. If it’s a bank that you aren’t a member to they may charge you a fee to exchange.
