Let's just say that you don't try to tell a local local news when you don't live anywhere near it.

I think they should just do away with pennies, round everything up or down, it'd all work out in the end and you'd never even know the difference

See, I like pennys. Why? It seems everyone in America wants to get rid of 'em.
Dollars are made up of 100 pennys. Pennys are everywhere, and people want to get rid of 'em.
I'm all game for that.

Well, I usually avoid the penny device.
However, when I have almost exact change, and a $50 bill the cashier can't handle, I accept the penny, as it is polite to the next guy in line. I don't feel like making him wait just because I have waaaay above exact change. How many times have you gone to the grocery, and the cashier needs to empty/fill the register till?! it takes 5-10 minutes IF they can get the computer working error free. Then add 20 minutes if there is a computer error.
