Is there a real difference between these two expressions? For example:
"A fin del mes voy a Londres" and
"A fines del mes voy a Londres"

Apparently a fines de means "around the end" and is vague whereas a fin de means precisely at the end. So your second sentence means I'm going to London around the end of the month.
All the native Spanish speakers must be busy!
