Poll: Small Change, is it that small to you?

[Pegghead]

Well here in Australia we don't use pennies anymore, our smallest form of currency is the 5 cent piece (At least I think it still is). And I'm somewhat stingy with money so if I ever see a 5 cent piece laying on the ground or the change from a purchase is 5 cents I'll take it.

Well, I wouldn't glue them together but I usually lose them eventually, but when I'm bored I put one penny at the end of my bed and try hit it with my other penny's

Your friend sounds like a tosser for getting mad over something silly like that, but personally I like to save small change.

I just let it accumulate in my pocket until I have enough to buy a snack from a vending machine. (I'm an adult with a proper paying job too, but I refuse to put dollar bills in vending machines for some reason.)

I collect all my change, then cash them in.

By the end of the month, I'll have about 60 bucks in change that I can turn in for bills.

 

[D-Cypher]

Hell yeah you should save your change. The change I amass from buying lunch at work during the week and beer down the pub at the weekend quickly builds up. I must change up a good £150-200 a year.

I dump my small change into a bucket with a vague plan to get it converted into real money at some point in the future, but I've never done it. A couple of times I donated all my accumulated small change to a Darfur charity.

This summer, my roommate, who does the same thing, put it all in rolls and ended up with nearly $100. He was dirt-poor at the time and wanted to take a girl on a date, though. I don't handle my money in such a way that I'll ever be that desperate, however.

When I get pennies, I just toss 'em. Unless my fiances with me, she keeps the bloody things. Rolls them and after 2 months makes all of what...probably 5 bucks. Whoopie.

I'll save nickels, dimes and quarters. But not pennies. I can't stand those little bastards.

 

[Altorin]

If the movie Office Space taught me anything, it is that pennies add up.

And Hypnotism is really cool.

and skinny white dorks singing gangsta rap is funny in any decade.

 

[Loop Stricken]

45p? No.

£5's worth of pennies, hell yes.

 

[FluffyNeurosis]

Pennies get in the damn way, I always wind up with a pile of them because they dont work in vending machines.

 

[DubMan]

Pennies are worthless and should be abolished regardless.

 

[Qujibo]

For gluing 45 pennies together, I think you need a girlfriend. But like, that's not wasting money. Wasting money is wiping your ass with a 1$ bill (or more) EVERY TIME. When I was like 7 I would do that all the time cause I thought it was cool. Then one day I backed the toilet up, and can you imagine what kind of scolding I got?

 

[Souplex]

I say we abolish change, and round everything to the nearest dollar!
*Makes it rain*

 

[Beartrucci]

Whenever I have change in my wallet, I always end up spending it on crap I don't need. I would buy a Pepsi Max every day after school because I had change, all that money spent D:

Wait a second, I would of bought a Pepsi Max anyway, because they are awesome.

 

[Guy32]

I keep quarters, occasionally dimes, rarely nickels, never pennies. I mean I don't try to get rid of them, but they make better paper weights.
