<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ewomack, post: 3847884, member: 15588&quot;]As long as currency changes are tied to acts of congress in the US, change will remain either slow or nonexistent. Canada doesn&#039;t have this problem, so they eliminated the cent and the dollar bill with relatively little effort.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am now to the point of pretty much never using cash, coin or currency. I don&#039;t need it. All of the vending machines near me take plastic, every store I shop in takes plastic. Buying online doesn&#039;t even have a cash option. I never have cash in my wallet or coins in my pocket. The only time I have had cash in my wallet in the past 2 - 3 years was after I sold a bunch of books to a used bookstore and they paid me in cash. I put it all in the bank and ended up using it via plastic.</p><p><br /></p><p>Others are probably in different situations, but I have basically had a cashless life for the past 3 - 4 years. I didn&#039;t mean to, it just happened. One day I just noticed the change. An actual physically circulating coin is a novelty for me now - I often gaze into the cent bins that sit by cash registers. Once in a great while someone else will have change and I&#039;ll want to see it, but I don&#039;t want to be creepy and leer at someone&#039;s change over their shoulder.</p><p><br /></p><p>I am unintendedly and unexpectedly cashless.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
