What is the point of having a Euro Cent coin?
No one ever bothers with it. Can’t use them in vending machines, shoppers don’t generally bother giving you any change involving a single cent coin. Say an item costs 51 cents. Rather than giving the shop keeper 60 cents (made up of a 50 cent coin and 10 cent coin) or even a euro coin, they just ask for the 50 cent coin. Same if its 53 cents, they sometimes prefer the 50 cent coin or charge 52 or 55.
As a result, Im building up a worthless pile of 1 euro cent coins that I can’t get rid of on the rare occasions I do get the exact change.
