in my earlier post unless you can buy your USD at a very good rate it's not worth it. I managed to save quite a bit but only because I got my USD at .9800 or above. It's convenient to take USD for VOA but for everyday funds it's just as easy to take AUD. The rate at Circle K stores was a fraction less then money changers on the street but these money changers will try and rip you off, as I experienced. Once they knew I was on to them they wouldn't change my money. I went to Circle K after that and saved the bother. They were very honest and easy to deal with.
