We got back last Sunday. We took some US but mostly AUD - the US rate dropped every day we were there, but the AUD kept rising so we kept our US to pay for places that specifically ask for US such as Safari Park etc.
Only take US if you are going somewhere that specifically requests it (and for the entry visa of course)
