If you're on a weekend trip this won't work most of the time. Especially on 
Sunday in a Catholic country.

>or from a bank’s (preferably indoor) ATM

This means that, once you see something you'd like to buy, you first need to 
find an ATM that won't charge exorbitant prices for currency exchange and cash 
withdrawal. Also, you should use a card provider that doesn't do that.
Even though I had a nice travel card a few times, cash still seems to be the 
king. And exchanged outside the destination country and outside the tourist 
season, if possible. :)

I wish all the remaining countries in Europe would start using Euro. That would 
make things so much easier. :D
