This topic is remind everyone that Slovakia converts to the Euro on January 1st 2009. We have just returned form a trip to Bratislava and duel-pricing is already operating in most shops, museums and places of entertainment, where the official exchange rate of Crowns to the Euro is prominently displayed on large posters. What we did find is that sometimes you will pay in Euro and receive you change in Crowns. It goes without saying that if you are left with any Slovakian Crowns after January 1st you might find some difficulty getting rid of them.
