Money hasn't vanished from Iceland
One thing has been bothering me a long time: Icelandic coins. They consist of 1, 5, 10, 50 and 100 krona coins. OK, that doesn't sound bad – there are actually fever coins than in the euro system. But the problem is their value. Even small things cost hundreds of kronas which means that you always get shitloads of coins in return. After few purchases all your bills have magically disappeared and your wallet's coin pocket is bursting out worthless pieces of metal. They really should get rid of the smallest coins – they are a pain in the ass, literally ;)

It's the same thing happening here in Canada, eventhough it's not that bad. 1 cent is the smallest one yes, but you might get something with just one dollar or even less, so you do the math. I do have my yellow forex bag reserved for this tiny shit that's miraculously appearing everywhere.
