You might be surprised by your credit card bills if you travel in Europe thinking that. There are two digits - not three - after the comma when speaking of euros, for example. The poster wrote that he paid 320,00 for dinner or 320 euros. 320.000 euros, OTOH, would be closer to $380,000.

I think US gas prices are about the only things that are expressed in fractions of cents.
