Money exchanges.... in US or Thailand

[moranpearl17]

I need a quick money reference to the Thai Baht... it's most commonly used bank notes. I would like to arrive in Thailand with some Thai currency. Here at the World Trade Center in Los Angeles is a foreign currency exchange with no fees or commissions..... sounds great. But need a guide that will give me a visual what a baht is what a 100 satang means..... any links?

"Satang" is like cents. There are 25 and 50 satang denominations but you don't need those and when you get them as change you'll have a hard time getting rid of them again. Just get mostly 100 Baht bills and smaller folding bills (100, 50, and 20). You can use bigger bills like 500 and 1000 at most commercial stores like 7-11, Tesco, and bigger restaurants, a taxi from the airport, as well as at the hotels for your room, but asking a food vendor who is selling you a stick of chicken for 20 Baht to break 1000 bill isn't going to be easy.
