<p>[QUOTE="jlogan, post: 1992525, member: 44612"]$2 bills are perfect for buying things that cost 99 cents. 99c + 5% sales tax = $1.04. you could use a five, or you could dig through your pocket for 4 pennies, but why would you do that when you can pay with a $2 bill and get 96 cents in change? Besides, if we ever do switch to the $1 coin, i'd much rather get 2 $2 bills in change for a five than 4 $1 coins <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>If your change is:</p><p>$1 - one $1 coin</p><p>$2 - one $2 bill</p><p>$3 - one $2 bill and one $1 coin</p><p>$4 - two $2 bills</p><p>$5 - one $5 bill</p><p>$6 - one $5 bill and one $1 coin</p><p>$7 - one $5 bill and one $2 bill</p><p>$8 - four $2 bills (or a five, a two, and a dollar)</p><p>$9 - one $5 bill and two $2 bills</p><p>$10 - one $10 bill</p><p>and so on</p><p><br /></p><p>this would eliminate the problem of "all those coins would get heavy!" that the greenback people use as their main argument against switching.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
[QUOTE="jlogan, post: 1992525, member: 44612"]$2 bills are perfect for buying things that cost 99 cents. 99c + 5% sales tax = $1.04. you could use a five, or you could dig through your pocket for 4 pennies, but why would you do that when you can pay with a $2 bill and get 96 cents in change? Besides, if we ever do switch to the $1 coin, i'd much rather get 2 $2 bills in change for a five than 4 $1 coins :D If your change is: $1 - one $1 coin $2 - one $2 bill $3 - one $2 bill and one $1 coin $4 - two $2 bills $5 - one $5 bill $6 - one $5 bill and one $1 coin $7 - one $5 bill and one $2 bill $8 - four $2 bills (or a five, a two, and a dollar) $9 - one $5 bill and two $2 bills $10 - one $10 bill and so on this would eliminate the problem of "all those coins would get heavy!" that the greenback people use as their main argument against switching.[/QUOTE]
