Unfortunately, the ATM obviously ate my precious card (on the third mistake). Fortunately, I was able to get it back from the bank, which was open, with a kindly attendant behind the counter: phew!<\/p>\n<p>Except that now, the card, even with the code, doesn't work anymore. It's automatically blocked for security reasons... I changed the few euros I was keeping just in case and I have enough to survive until tomorrow. But no futile purchases for the moment.
