I heard that earlier in the year (January & February) a lot of parking meters throughout Spain were still only taking pesetas. Can anyone tell me if they are mostly converted over to euros yet?

Thanks!

Uh, pesetas? what's that? :p

Since the first of February you can't use pesetas anywhere, only euros, so I guess it is necessary that the parkimeters are already converted to euros.

We used parking meters a few times in Santiago de Compostela over Semana Santa 3 weeks ago and didn't see any taking pesetas, only Euros. I'm sure all parking meters, even in small towns, have been changed over to pesetas.
