Oh man you should've seen the sub two years ago. All the LPTs had a sock on them, so if you tried to take the LPT, all you would get is the sock

or, the cashier will take the sock off the cash, and then all they will get is the sock.

Yeah I get you, I've made a habit of asking people that question as it's the reality for a lot of people where I'm from, and most people I know who state they live paycheck to paycheck are in that situation

Aside the point. when you try to pay but its all in the sock so you give them the sock and all they get is the sock, which is not valid tender afaik

what about people who live paycheck to paycheck because rent is 950/month and they only earn 250 a week?

Im sorry to hear that about your family, how far north are you living? I know there are certain spots that have had it a little more difficult, but I believe for the majority of the EU its been more or less business as usual! There are people complaining on the sub, yes, but (I feel bad saying this), I know that people tend to only speak of things like this when they're worse off. People complain more often than they do celebrate. There's a name for this phenomenon, I've forgotten what it is

I'm from Ireland, where theres been more or less no change! Definitely not the north, but not the south either!

Someone is not uplifted :(

Go to Europe and ask around haha, it's been fine for the most part, all the panic before the winter led to a lot of measures being taken which led to very little changing in terms of peoples standard of living. Also, I need to stress that Europe is not 1 country, and there's definitely a couple places that have been worse off, but the majority of countries in Europe have been genuinely fine! Can't really generalise all of the EU together

Where are you getting that from? Funnily enough it's been more or less fine over here.

It still makes me happy!

You'll feel better in a week

No this, is a messy request
