I have used a :note-500: once, when I moved and had to buy some material for paint, furniture and some other useful devices...back then (2003) I couldn't held going to my bank and ask for it. It was a nice occasion to get this experience. :wink:

Since banks only have these machines you aren't able to get one these days... :cry:

I used some :note-500: last November when I bought a cellar.

The greatest part of the price was paid througt the Bank, but a smaller part was paid cash.

I used a :note-500: two years ago to pay my vacations in USA.
I had another :note-500: for Christmas as a present of my grandma.

Well, I never had to pay with so much money, but my father has received (on rare occasions) some notes of 500. That's how I got my 500-numbers.
