Maybe it will help to understand if you would know that the exchange rate for foreign currencies are a lot higher in Turkey than in the UK, in other words you do get much more for your money if you exchange it over here in Turkey.

What ever your exchange agent in your country tells you, simply dont fall into sales pitch for currency, no matter how fussy you are. Oh, also do not exchange your currency in any Airport, does'nt matter uk or turkish airport, both are usually very low with their rates.

You can shop with your own curreny, sterling or euro, without any problem. as long as the banknotes are not ripped or damaged then every shop keeper, restaurant, pub, bar, travel agent, taxi driver will accept it.

Bare in mind Scottish Pounds are an exception as scottish notes are not known and banks or exchange offices are not exchanging them.
