They're not worth anything, never were but even less through the years with inflation.

If a store wants to sell something for 99 cent, they can either just take 1โ‚ฌ or 95 cent.

Maybe even 5 cent pieces? But that would be a bit radical.

I am a bit annoyed that easy ideas like this are never discussed in politics, or wherever. It would make our lives just a little bit easier, and having them achieves NOTHING.

I am all for it. Though here in Germany it would probably give quite a number of people a heart attack not being able to pay an exact amount to the cent.

I feel called out.

No, seriously. Last season I bought some plums from my Turkish greengrocer, he put them on the scales which said 1.01 Euro which he commented with "one Euro". I gave him 1.01 Euro, and got a "can you believe those Almans" look.
