Euros Are Now Being Accepted In New York City.

As another sign of the decline of the U.S. dollar and to encourage Europeans to come visit us, some stores in New York City are now putting out the “Euros Accepted” signs.

From Reuters:

In the latest example that the U.S. dollar just ain’t what it used to be, some shops in New York City have begun accepting euros and other foreign currency as payment for merchandise. “We had decided that money is money and we’ll take it and just do the exchange whenever we can with our bank,” Robert Chu, owner of East Village Wines, told Reuters television.

I wonder if they still take the U.S. dollar over there anymore…anyone been there lately?
