craigh Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 If they did that here in the USA, the place I work for would have to give me a raise. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyK Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 They've been talking about it down here for decades. I don't think it'll ever go away. Personally I like them. If you don't want them give leave them on the cash register counter. "See a penny pick it up, then all the day you'll have good luck." If they want to save money in the lower 48, they should stop printing the $1 bill. Do like they did north of the 40th parallel, force people to use the Loonie whether they like it or not.

Did you American cousins give us more land that I dont know about? lol about the loonie....its too much weight in the pocket. That combined with the twoonie makes for some baggy pants. They are talking about $5 coin now....sigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingarmadillo Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 It wouldn't be a bad idea down here either since the penny costs the government 1.3 cents each to make. It would probably save more than it would generate with the roundup. BTW, y'all up there have pretty interesting ideas about money. I got a Caanadian nickle for change the other day and I haven't figured out whether putting the queen on one side and a beaver on the other is satirical or whimsical.

Lord knows we fought a Pig War over the dispute. Glad we got it settled. Baggy pants? You be right in style with the young hoods.. I mean youts.
