How do I pay for Oktoberfest tent vouchers?

Question

I need to prepay for food/drink vouchers before going to Munich for Oktobefest. The tents I have reservations for assume that you'll be paying for your vouchers in person before the fest. They do allow for you to do it by mail (I think).. but they don't take credit cards. You have to pay with personal check, Eurocheque, EC Debit Card, or cash. I'm pretty sure I can't write a personal check from my US account...so any ideas? Can I get a check in Euros from my bank?

Answer 1

You probably misunderstood something; generally you have to pay in advance when in the tent on the Oktoberfest, means you pay at a cashier and get vouchers for your beer and meals which you hand over to the service personnel.

Maybe you can give us further information in which tent you have made the reservation, because all of them have different systems.

BTW: The Eurocheque used to be a common method of payment in the last century. Today no one uses Eurocheques in Germany.
