I almost never use cash anymore, but when I do, I dump the change into a bin when I get home. Eventually after several years enough change has accumulated to be worth me taking it to my credit union to be counted. But honestly I can go months without carrying any cash on me. My wife is like, “HOW CAN YOU NOT CARRY ANY CASH? YOU NEED SOME CASH IN CASE OF EMERGENCIES,” but I still don’t bother. I buy basically everything on one of my two credit cards which I pay off at the end of the month, and I use my debit card at Woodman’s supermarket because they don’t take credit cards, so they don’t have to pay credit card fees, “AND WE PASS THE SAVINGS ON TO YOU!!!”

They are still in circulation here in Canada, but no new pennies are being produced and prices are all listed to the nearest nickel here (i.e. the price may say $1.96, but you just round to the nearest nickel)!

This sort of thing seems like a good use:
Really though, down with the penny. For that matter the nickle and maybe the dime need to go (the dime is worth less than half of what the half-penny was worth when it was removed from circulation).

They really should, the penny hasn’t made economic sense for a very long time.
Or, at the very least, make them out of plastic or outsource production to the People’s Bank of China or something.

speed loader. keep filling it up and when you hit the designated amount there is slot, for the excess coins to slide out. then you slide in the paper in.

I think its one of those budget items that won’t happen. I read that it costs the USA about $75,000 per year to mint pennies. Imagine how many millions of dollars it would cost in House and Senate meetings to forge an agreement to stop production.

Australia does that too for cash transactions. Credit is still charged to the penny, but cash gets rounded. I think it is brilliant. But of course that means the penny will forever stay here in the US :(

Yup, credit or debit also DON’T round here, just cash.
