All I could charge would be what I offer, which is two lire. ;) At the old exchange rate, of about 1700 lire to the dollar, I might make enough for a cup of espresso, if lire were taken anymore. Sadly, I don't think they are. Maybe eppie, who now lives in Italia, can tell us if he uses Euro, Lire, or both to buy his Barilla pasta.

Oh mai....you really are not sure if Italy uses euro's?
Well 'we' do.........and 75 ct (or 3.847 dollarinchoz/ fahrenheit in the US) buys you a small cup of caffe (coffee has a very narrow pricerange set by the government)
