Who here keeps/uses pennies?
    #15465477 -

'Cause I honestly throw them away, like in the trash when I'm given pennies in an amount of change.  Pennies seem pretty useless nowadays, the space pennies take to make a dollar is huge.  One hundred pennies is a heavy chunk of change that takes up like a 2x2 space, it doesn't seem worth it, so I just whip the pennies in the parking lot or slip them in the trash.

Nickels are pretty pointless too.  Twenty nickels takes up a huge amount of space as well.  Currency needs to be re-evaluated I think.

My apologies for offending anyone who's grandfather/friend/relative that works at the treasury.

Something like that.

and you got TWO WHOLE dollars from it?!  That jar could've been used for preserves man!

Note:  I didn't watch the video so my comment might sound stupid.  It's in gods hands now.

I have 3 different jars. one for pennies, one for nickels and dimes, and one for quarters. when they are full, I coinstar my pennies, and trade the rest in at the bank :shrug:

I throw all my coins together in a jar.

I pick out the quarters/dimes/nickels and use them for fast food (when I have it as a treat).

The pennies accumulate; I imagine I'll transfer them to a bag if I fill the jar.

However, that will take a while. I don't use cash very often.

I coinstar them as well. I get $50 on average then go spend it all on beer.

There's a lot of talk in Canada to remove the penny from circulation.

Costs more to make than its worth. They are more of a nuisance than anything.

Lets say stuff cost 4.99, you pay with a five, I always feel bad. If I take the penny I feel cheap as fuck, if I leave the penny I feel like I'm saying to the cashier "here you go girl, go buy yourself something nice"

When you leave the penny at the cashier they don't keep it it goes in that little dish for customers to use to make even change.

Nah, I keep change in the ash tray in the car for lighters and what not.  I just throw out the pennies and nickels because they never accumulate and are shadowed by the larger pieces of currency. 

I just don't have the patience for thems bitches.

And I'm not a brat, I made my money myself with my ideas.

Around here I've been noticing amounts being rounded off up to the nearest nickel when I buy something.
