The US should stop making anything less than a quarter. Every time I buy something I get all this stupid change and I don't know what to do with it. I'm certainly not going to carry change with me. Fuck cash. I have a debit card.

[QUOTE=J!NX;30732201]I question your decency and honor actually.[/QUOTE] it's spelt honour you dingus

New zealander living in Australia reporting in. Fuck 5 cent coins, I was surprised when some wound up in my wallet. My brain now has to comprehend 5 cent denominations after having not used them since 2006 back home.

5 cent coins lead kids to violence.

But how will everything cost X dollars and 95 cents?

[QUOTE=Lachz0r;30733078]it's spelt honour you dingus[/QUOTE] Both are correct, you derp.

5 cent coins are awesome, many times where I'm 50 cents or $1 short I have 5 cent coins to back me up.

[QUOTE=shadow_of_intent;30733242]But how will everything cost X dollars and 95 cents?[/QUOTE] The whole _ and 95 cents is one of the oldest tricks that still work, even if only a bit. Its because we see something for 19.95 cheaper and easier on the wallet than 20.00, even if its only 5 cents. This should fix that

I hope this means my mum will pay me 10c now instead of 5c for cleaning the dishes.

Just use bottle caps.

[QUOTE=dass;30738467]Just use bottle caps.[/QUOTE] Can't do that, or every true blue Australian would be a millionaire

Gonna go get me a big bag of 5 cent coins so I can still go and scratch scratchies. To me it feels uncomfortable to use anything else.

I thought the world was moving towards digital currency anyway?

5 cent coins suck, I have a buttload of them in my car center console. Even change machines don't accept them to turn them into $1 coins, they're literally useless.
