My country has finally seen the light and in the fall we will stop making pennies. Huzzah! Since beginning my career in giving people change for twenty dollar bills, I have become a firm hater of the penny. Also I have seen the math and listened to some smart people talk about the penny. And New Zealand is doing just fine without it.
So, yay us! We are getting rid of our penny. I will of course save some to show my children.
On a less approving note. The new plastic money sticks together. It can make life difficult. And it just doesn't feel like money. But I approve of no pennies, so I can forgive about the plastic money, and I am sure that in time I will become used to it. I hope.
NO MORE OF THESE BABIES! |
