All stores, restaurants, bars, etc..take plastic. Call your bank and see if they refund the ATM service charges overseas. Some do, some don't.

Have a great time and be careful of that group of ATM machines in the arrival area at the Barcelona airport. Somestimes they don't dispense but will register a withdrawl on your bank account. Just watch what other folks are doing and if there's amachine that no-one's using--avoid it.

Oh, $1.41 to 1 Euro right now so be prepared to be kinda raped on the exchange rate...
Where are you living in Spain?
