A blank conversion chart you fill in at the rate of the day — two ladders from 1 to 1000, both ways, plus the prices worth knowing by heart.

No rate is printed on this sheet, and that is the whole idea. Rates move daily, and the one your card gives you is not the one in the news, so a chart printed with figures is wrong before it leaves the printer. Instead you get four fields at the top — your home currency, the currency where you are going, the date you checked the rate and where you checked it — and two boxed lines for the rate itself: what one unit at home buys, and what one unit there costs.
A worked example sits under the boxes, and it says plainly that its figure is made up. It shows the two sums: if one unit at home bought 1.25 units there, then 20 at home is 20 x 1.25 = 25 there, and 25 there is 25 / 1.25 = 20 at home. Below it are two ladders, side by side, each with ten rows — 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000 — one converting from home to there, the other back again. Fill them in once at the airport and you can read a price without doing arithmetic in a shop.
The last table is the one people use most: common prices worth knowing by heart. Eight items are printed — coffee, a bottle of water, a bus or metro ticket, lunch, dinner for two, a taxi across town, a museum ticket, a SIM card or data — with two blank rows and columns for the price there and the same price at home. Every cell is fillable. One page, US Letter or A4.
