Thank you from a recent subscriber, this was very useful. One question, if I may. You talk a lot about exchanging money. Are there any benefit to that, compared to just withdraw money from an ATM machine?
Yes because most of the ATM machines in Sunny B charge you because it is a tourist resort , for example on the promenade all ATMs there have a high charge as they are run by EuroNet , Avoid EuroNet machines
@ringperm it depends what bank you are with, my Nat West Charges me but other cards such as Starling, Revolut and Monzo do not. Maybe open an account with Starling bank or being cash with you and you get an amazing rate at the bank here but you must bring your passport or ID

Be careful not to drink the so called local draught beer in Flower Street area as it's poor beer, the only local beer I know is from Burgas, better from half litre bottle if not sure about draught, my favourite is Schunensko from Schuman, however, not many places have it, a bar called Spiders may have it and it will be no more than 2.5 Levs, not in the greatest of positions, however, it's the best value bar in Sunny Beach believe me I've been going in the pub over 20 years..
Thanks for the Tips! I’m in Burgas City right now, I posted a Tour today and I’m posting another tomorrow. I will give Spiders a go in a few days and try the Beers that you suggested, thanks for the useful Tips. Can you recommend a Barber shop that is good value? I asked at a few and they were 30 Leva (£14) which is Overpriced. Also can you recommend me which is the Best Value Supermarket in Sunny B?
Never used a barbers in Bulgaria but heard they are pricey, I'm sure in Burgas they will be cheaper than sunny beach, to be honest I only use local supermarkets which are not cheap, Janet is cheaper, there's a big one near Nesebur and you said there's a couple of Lidl. I only get snacks for hotel room and I eat out twice a day as I only ever go B&B as AI is not so good, looking forward to seeing your Burgas video 👍
The Hairdressers in Burgas also asked me for 30 Leva today. How can Locals afford that? Rip Off! The Taxi Drivers here in Burgas City try to Rob you Blind, they asked me for 20 Leva for a 3-5 minute journey today
