<p>[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 1265784, member: 31533"]Maybe mint them every 5 years instead of every year. Problem is that the gov't is always worried that there may be a "shortage" of pennies, but nowadays not as much of the population really needs them because they use debit cards instead for nearly everything, and those that get change are quite used to getting a 95 cents in change when they should have gotten 93 or 94 (an example, it's happened to me). Generally the businesses take out of the take one/leave one container as neccessary. Many people do leave their pennies there, too --- they just don't bother with a cent or two.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
