The Aldi here is fine. Apart from remembering the ****ing pound coin
for the trolley.

A 20 cents (Euro) works fine and as you can't spend it here, you don't
find that you're suddenly without. At only 20c, you can keep a few
spares in the car, just in case you lose one too.

Spending it isn't the problem, remembering to take it from the car is..
I always walk from the car to the shop twice. I always pay with a
credit or debit card, I don't carry cash.

I make extra efforts to get change, but if I don't use it to pay for
something from a machine (vending or parking), my wife always needs
change for school things, so the 20c are the only coins I manage to hang
on to!

If I'm in a foul mood and I forget my £1 coin, I go back to the car, grab a huge pile of coppers, and go and change them in the supermarket.
