This is the site I use for exchange: http://www.xe.com/ucc/ Actual rates in CZ may vary and there may be service charges, but I find when I get cash advances from ATMs in Czechia the rates are pretty close to those published on this site. Similar information (and more) can be found here: http://www.myczechrepublic.com/basics/c ... rency.html
in 1993 the rate was 27 for a dollar, in 1998 it was 47! Now it is 22-23, so yes, everything is cheaper to buy there...Levis jeans for 130 USD! Clinton knew not to F*** up the economy, Bush knows how to play golf ( a nic vic)!
