Don't know about Denmark, but I believe in some countries with a similar situation by law they have to round to the nearest multiple of the smallest denomination coin, so it evens out.

Of course, if you pay via credit card or bank card other electronic means, as more and more people do even for small amounts, you pay the exact price.



It works in Finland, the lowest coin value is 5 cents. If you pay by cash the price is rounded up or down. They've also got rid of cheques.
