Make sure that when you buy a card that it is good for the U.S. Canfranc
Estacion was the first town that I came to in Spain. I asked about telephone
cards at the tourist office and was directed to a tabac shop. There I found
that they had cards for Spain only, cards for all of Europe (or at least
the E.U.), and even cards for IberoAmerica (a much more sensible term than
Latin-America), but nothing for the U.S. and Canada. Later, in Jaca, I
was able to get a more general card at the Correos. Note: Sometimes it
is difficult to find a telephone that accepts cards.
<p>I, too, found the cards to be quite reasonable. My impression is that
this is the cheapest way to call. I didn't like the cards in France, because
a voice over the line tells how much is left on the card, and I couldn't
understand it most of the time. In Spain (and Portugal as well), the little
LCD screen shows how much is left on the card.
