[QUOTE="Detecto92, post: 1537951, member: 75105"]I agree that the cent should go bye-bye. You spend $1.96 on something, then get 4 cents back in change. After a few months you have a huge jar of pennies, that have to be taken to the bank. You can't buy anything for a cent, and people frown on you standing there digging out pennies when in a line. A lot of the old biddies are going to whine that purchases are going to cost 1-4 cents more, but I'm glad to see the penny go. I used to work at Target, and would hate it when the line was tied up by an old lady digging out pennies. I think they should get rid of the nickel too, and round up all purchases to say $1.90 or $2.00 1c and 5c change was handy when things used to cost 9 or 16 cents, today you pretty much can't buy ANYTHING for less than 25 cents.[/QUOTE]
