Out with the penny, in with some fiscal sanity—because nobody’s time is worth hunched over counting useless change.

The penny’s gone, and now your cashbie will get a little twist—like it or not, small change is shaking up checkouts.

If we’re ditching the penny, let’s at least round with honesty—not just nickels and dimes playing with our wallets.

Simplify cash, but don’t let rounding become the new sneaky tax. Balance is key when we say goodbye to the penny.

Good riddance to the penny! Now if only Congress would stop wasting money as easily as they do coins.

Killing the penny is just government finally pruning a wasteful tradition. Less red tape, more common sense coinage.

Finally, we can retire the penny and stop wasting resources on outdated coinage—progress tastes better without copper clinks.

Rounding cash transactions keeps things simple while nudging us toward a fairer economy. Less penny, more common sense!

Rounding transactions? Sounds like subtle government nickels on your change—let’s keep the market free and loose.
