Yup, post office. They'll do most in-store (US Dollars, certainly), and if not then it's normally next-day. All with no commission charges.

Marks and Spencer were doing better deals at the postoffice when i got my Euros last weekend!
Also, a lot of travel agents will beat the post office price.
Travelex also offer great rates, if you order online and collect from the Airport

I lived in Gloucester MA for a few years and travel regularly still too see friends and ex-in-laws. Have to say i still check out all the travel agents first. ( and PO) Many travel agents charge no fees either now....not just the PO. Best deals i,ve ever had though have been at the banks in the US themselves. Sometimes ended up with an extra 4 cents per dollar compared to the UK PO and agents etc at that time
It still pays to look around.
