    In Denmark it's not like in the USA where you only have coins for the small amounts. Here the largest amount of money put in to a coin is 20 kr. which is around 3,33 dollars. The smallest ones is of course what we call "øre" (Cents). Anyway, here in Denmark we use coins a lot and therefore I've purchased many expensive things by only using coins.

    My biggest was probably $32, buying 2 new dress shirts at Ross. Good thing I was the last person in line. Other than that, $45 is the largest I deposited in coins, but I put them all in coin wrappers.

    I usually only use coins for the arcade. In Canada, I spent a good 7-8 dollars on DDR. Hey. It was during a lunch break on our French trip and I didn't feel like eating lunch.

    I bought a bunch of lollipops at SaveMart once, so maybe five dollars in dimes and nickels.
