you know pennies are a nuisance but it is the one coin i find i can stick in a jar and not spend.. Its not like we are being forced to carry them stick them in a jar let them add up for years and either spend the money or do what my grandfather did.. he saved all of his pennys from the time i was born to the time I was 17 and gave them too me I had 700 that i wouldnt have had if he didnt do that.. its amazing how you can save them and eventurally they do add up.. i used it to buy baby things that i needed.. its not millions but could help your kid buy iteams for their first apartment or a grandkid a first car or anything really.. i guess my point is getting rid of the penny seems like such a shame..
