Now I couldn't put this in Debate / Logic / News Discussion because apparently I'm not "old enough" to post there. For those who have rupees and whatnot follow these handy demonstrations: Penny = 1 cent. Nickel = 5 cents. Dime = 10 cents. Quarter = 25 cents. Dollar = 100 cents. Dollars are not that much money. An example: Video game = 40-50 dollars. Painting = 200-1000 dollars. So a penny is very low on the list. The reason the government stopped making them was because the penny takes more money to  make then it's actually worth. So what are your thoughts on the penny going? I'm sort of sad to see it go after all these years.

zelda2 : Really? I never would have guessed that they'd ditch the penny. Interesting... I'm suprised (duh) that the penny's gone, but I'm not sad. I never really liked penny's... XD

As you pointed out in your first post, pennies are wasteful. I think it's a good thing.

I know the US had done this a while ago, I thought Canada had too.

At least they'll be saving money. It'll be ages before they're out of circulation, so it's not like pennies are just going to disappear.

pennys are annoying, as are 2's.

Yeah, my Mom went grocery shopping yesterday and her total was rounded up. It`ll be nice (but a little strange) not having tons of pennies in my change all the time though.

Very sad news, but it's good that it gets rounded. I hate searching through my pockets for extra pennies and stuff.

I went through the effort of collecting a penny for every year of my life, starting in 1997.

zelda2 : My grandfather, who was born in 1946, started doing it last year when they announced it. He got them all, and I took inspiration from that and got them. Took me a lot less time though.

This is really... Stupid, even someone said on twitter or some sort of site that the penny helps children learn!
However the reason to take away the penny is good, since they cost more than they are.

I thought they had done this a long time ago. I guess I'm probably thinking of the UK or something... Anyway, I think it's great, such small units of currency are totally worthless in this day and age. It would be like carrying around a sack full of half-pennies. Who would do that?
