OK, pennies suck badly enough. They exist only so that merchants can charge 99 cents for something and make you think it's cheaper than $1. Now I just went to grab a snack out of the vending machine here at work and for my 15 cents change I get two nickels and 5 pennies! What the hell??
 
You must have different vending machines than we have in Canada. Pennies don't fit here. Strange that they were returned to you as change.
 
Maybe it just gipped me a nickel and some idiot left the pennies in there. Somehow that would offend me less.
 
OMG! I hate pennies! I really hate the 1.99 or 5.99 type of prices! I finally found a restaurant that has real prices on their menus. 10, 15 and so on, I love it. Like that one measley penny makes that much of a frickin difference to me. I can spare it. If I ever open a restaurant I am so having normal prices!
 
i don't understand why places can't put prices that end up ending with a 0 or a 5...then we could actually go without pennies forever. that is part of what my heaven is like lol.

on a funny note, before italy adopted the euro and were using lire...one lire was so worthless that the cashiers would have bowls of candy and you could take candy rather than getting the pittling change lol. how awesome is that?
