Hi Dobber!

Do you feel that Danes are interested in €, now?
Will you vote again soon?

Still many danes are against it for some reason, and a new vote will first be in 2-4 year I suppose.
That is sad, because we have been left "outside" the group.

I think the way Germany solved the problem was great, the government just accepted the euro without making a vote first.

After all, Danes could use the DAK and the € !

In France, a referendum took place for the Maastricht treaty, in 1993. So we voted for the Euro. But people only realised it... in 2001!

Don't quit DAK too quickly, I still have some coins and notes from my last trip to Copenhagen, in last november.

Hello Dobber!

Nice to see somebody from 'outside' the euromoney country's.
Is it allready possible to pay with euro's in Denmark, or do you only accept DK

Unfortunately very few shops accept euro, so you have to exchange yuour money to danish krones before to shop in Denmark,

I've been to London 10 day's ago and there it is also not possible to pay with euro's. Only the big warehouses accept them, but it is cheaper to use pounds...

Even with the change fees, it doesn't worth it? We have to pay fees to change € for £ in banks...

Do you what the situation is in Switzerland? All their neighbours have € ...

I've got all the coins from Luxemburg. I don't have yet all the coins from Portugal, Finland and Greece.

I should travel more often

. I don't have that many coins yet. But you gotta admit, collecting those coins is a really expensive hobby, at least in the end, don't you think?

Anyways, I think this site is real cool. I haven't had much luck with my bills yet, but I like the thought of being able to find out who's had "my" bill(s) in his/her hands, and that all over Europe.

Cheers,

El Jimi
