We got rid of anything paper below 10. So now 1, 2, 5 coins (and some for cents) and bills 10 and up. We used to have paper bills for 1, 2 and 5 before, nobody misses them.

Sadly, not yet. It's Litas. Only one of the three "Baltic sisters" (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) has joined Euro zone yet: Estonia.
