In all my shoppings I done in Thailand, only once did I receive satangs as return change, ...and I was surprised, I thought it`s a farang coin then my wife explained that Baht is not the smallest money unit there, they have these Satangs. So how much are satangs generaly used?....better yet, what can you buy-if anything, with a satang?...are they just nuisance in shopping?, as pennies/cents are here in U.S.?...I mean one pack of chewing gum here costs 30 cents, so you really can not buy anything for one cent. Isn`t the satang situatuion same as cent`s here?...oh, they wanted to stop making cents here some years back, but they are still around...you can even find some of them thrown away on street as bothersome and useless (I saw lot of them), ..so how Thais feel about their Satangs?..are they heplful in shopping or just satans/nuisance?... ....
