<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SanMiguel, post: 201857, member: 3379&quot;]lettow pretty much has it covered. they take the place of coins and are meant to save money in shipping costs since they&#039;re so light. it&#039;s the same reason military bases overseas have stopped using the penny, coins are heavy and burn plenty of fuel. without pennies, prices are just rounded up or down accordingly.</p><p><br /></p><p>pogs come in 5, 10, and 25 cent denominations, and are inscribed with &quot;AAFES Gift Certificate&quot; on the reverse. with that being said, i don&#039;t think they really belong in the official paper money catalog. while a lot of them have pretty interesting designs...a lot of people out here really don&#039;t like using them. they either accumulate and get cashed in before going home, or they get spent as soon as possible. </p><p><br /></p><p>one thing that gets on my nerves: i usually fold up my cap and stick it in my pocket whenever i enter a building. when i leave, i flip out the cap, slap it on my hand to reshape it, and place it on my head. then i go on about my business. meanwhile, a pocketful of pogs are lying on the ground from when i took my hat out...</p><p><br /></p><p>the payment of choice out here is &quot;eagle cash&quot;, sort&#039;ve like a pre-paid credit card. your bank account is linked to your eagle cash card, and you can transfer money back and forth from your card/bank as often as you need to at special kiosks. mine broke a long time ago, so i just stick to my debit card.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie7" alt=":p" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
