Pennies will be History......

So I guess everything will be rounded up to a nickle......Now.....What will they do
about the 9 tenths of a cent pricing on gasoline ?? Our area gas is now at 3.199.
And no more giving someone my 2 cents.....LOL I guess it will be a nickles worth
now......I wont miss them.
 
Using change is so last century ! Lol.
I was behind a fellow telling the cashier "wait, i maybe have 4 pennies" digging in his pocket only to find 2 . It's been a long long time since I've seen that.
I never thought i would but i now use electronic payment for everything except match fees & carving classes.
 
It’ll be a cluster flock. I can’t see any business rounding down on a cash sale. It forces buyers into using credit or debit cards. Or checks.

Can’t see local, state, and federal taxes rounding down either.

Keep them pennies, the days of exact change are coming. :rolleyes:

It was irritating as hell during Covid to not get your due change.

I disagree. They'll simply round up to the nearest $.05. No big deal for them.
 
It cost .035 to make a penny. It cost .13 to make a nickel. How long till the nickel is gone? This is only a small step in getting rid of cash and going all digital, which is what they want. They will have total control of YOUR money and you WILL do what they want or you simply won't eat because they will shut your card off. Mark my words this is not good for us.

I love your Red Line.
 
I can’t even remember when I even had a penny in my pockets never mind using one for currency.
