Curious about effort vs. reward here.
I throw them into mall water fountains from the highest floor. I like the way they splash.I'll usually pick up any coin, although the pennies are often forgotten about immediately. Have they tried to get rid of it yet?
My buddy in college taught me a way to flick them by snapping my fingers. It's pretty fun.I throw them into mall water fountains from the highest floor. I like the way they splash.
Do the same unless they're pre '82 (copper not zinc).I started throwing all my pennies in the garbage about 7-8 years ago. Not worth the annoyance.
If you had kept one penny to give her, you would have gotten a ten back and saved everyone time and money.I regularly throw pennies out. They have negative value worth the effort.
If your bill at the store comes to $10.01, you pay with a twenty, and the clerk (who makes $10/hour) takes an extra 20 seconds to count out and hand you $9.99 instead of just giving you a ten dollar bill - someone just paid her $0.06 to save a penny.
Prices displayed should have tax already included. Then it'd be easy to get rid of the small coins. It would raise productivity since cashiers waste a lot of time on giving and counting change. Most countries do it this way. Some countries only have paper money. I love not having to carry any coins.Get rid of all the pennies, and nickels and dimes for that matter
I rarely carry cash. I never carry change. Money i and of itself is becoming an unnecessary inconvenience.I love not having to carry any coins.
It would not. This assumes that customers have distinct and constant patterns for when they would check out and that the stores are limited in the number of customers they can serve due to checkout backup.would raise productivity since cashiers waste a lot of time on giving and counting change
Or we can just do away with this nonsense. Searching around in my pockets for a penny? I make a lot more than $10/hour. One second makes it not worth my time.If you had kept one penny to give her, you would have gotten a ten back and saved everyone time and money.
Preach man.. I feel like we should be definitely at the point in society where nickel is the smallest coin.. and frankly dime would be better than that even.I regularly throw pennies out. They have negative value worth the effort.

It costs more than a penny to make a penny. In 2018 taxpayers lost 85 million dollars in making pennies.

Firmly anti-penny.
Had to include them but there are so few in circulation. I've never seen one dropped/lost on the ground.Half dollars and dollars just because they are fairly rare to see. I mean, how often do you see these coins being passed around? It would be a novelty to me.
Found one yesterday...it was the inspiration for this thread.I said a quarter but I don't remember the last time I actually saw one on the ground.
Yea man. This board won’t be around someday. No young members.Jesus, we're old
