The Philippines is experiencing an artificial coin shortage.

It鈥檚 artificial because there are plenty of coins - it鈥檚 just that people are using them less so they fall out of circulation and end up collecting in jars at home.

Hannah Mullane investigates why this is happening and what impact it鈥檚 having on consumer behaviour. And reporter Camille Elemia speaks to businesses and shoppers in Quezon city to find out how Filipino鈥檚 are changing the way they spend.
