The Local
Slovakia wasn't the only place to start using the Euro on January 1st, the Swedish town of Höganäs has decided to start using the Euro alongside the Swedish Krona. The town is a popular tourist destination, so being able to do business in Euros is a huge boost for them. It is not unusual for shops in tourist centers outside the Eurozone to accept Euros. What makes Höganäs unique is that people will be allowed to conduct all official business, such as paying bills and rent, in Euros and withdraw Euros from local ATMs.
