Can I Still Offer My 2 Cents Worth?

The Canadian Mint has stopped making pennies.  How will this affect us?  Here are a couple of links to get you started.

  1. Wow I wonder what life will be like without pennies. Well you would ethier have to pay less or more. say your price was 12.99 you would pay 13.00 or if your price was 12.71 you would pay 12.70.So you can see what life would be like without pennies.

  2. I think that the canadian mint should make pennies because if you are charged a cent in a store like 51 cents or something how will you pay it if there is no more penneys left in canada? That is why I think that canada should make pennys.
    thank you for your time! Bruse.

I wonder what it will be like with out any pennies, but I know people will have a good sultion what to do.
