It has always been pretty easy just to use my ATM.

I didn't do this in Cairo, but I've done it all over Europe. Cheapest way to get the local currency. I carried several cards (two bank account ATM cards, several credit cards with PIN numbers & cash advance capability) just in case I had trouble with one not working, but I never had a problem.
