I must say after living with Euro for 5 months how that prices of services has gone up ridiculously. I mean wtf... one euro is approx. 240 ex slovne tolars. I've never witnessed a cup of coffee costing more than 200 tolars before (200 would be expensive already). While now everybody's "rounding up" their prices to AT LEAST 1 Euro. If not more (record I've seen so far: 2,2 euros for a cup of coffee with milk, though granted that was at the seaside).
Otherwise things are pretty okay on the macroeconomic level. Euro didn't have a significant effect on inflation. The only thing I'm bothered with is the psychological effect. When you were holdign a 1000 tolar bank note is actually seem like quite a bit of money... you didn't spend it calously by no means... these days ... 2 two euro coins get spent so easily ... you don't even notice they're gone...
