Fons' avatar remided me: I have used 500€ bills, but I never ever got a 200€ bill. I acutally don't see the need for such a note (and neither a 20€ note)

In Belgium almost everyone pays with €20, it's the smallest denomination that comes out of an ATM. We used to have a not of 1000 BEF, or 25 EUR. But I agree for the 200 note.

I have never used a 500 (or a 100 or a 200). In fact strangely enough I don't think I have ever had any of these denominations in my hands before. :cry:

I've used €500 notes quite a few times and entered 9 of them so far...
Niet meer zo fanatiek als ooit maar is nu al voor het 8ste jaar aan het invoeren... Overigens is een klein deel van mijn biljetten gestempeld met de ebt url

It's funny, because I never did. But then I was on the messenger with a friend so I asked if he had some notes, so he gave some 10s, 20s and 50s and then a 500. So I sad, you probably mean a 50, no he said this is a real 500, I need to go out tonight you know. Hahaha, it's was one of my first.

So far never. At work I have held 500 € notes in my hands several times, though. So I know what they look like. :wink:

I have entered 12 notes of 500 euro, each time 1 at the beginning of the month because I got my salary cash paid. :D
I firstly let those notes change in the bank, and than I put the money in the machine, so I don't use them to pay for something.

I've used them when I bought my new PC, but in those times I didn't think of submitting euro-notes :(

I entered my first 500 bill last week when my brother used it to make the first payment on his new (second hand) car.

The only other time I got hold of a 500 bill was before I knew about EBT in the beginning of 2004 when I used it for the same reason as my brother did last week.
