Comment on US Treasury to stop producing pennies next yearparent

Comments

There's nearly nothing you can buy today for less than a dollar.

Aren't most things in the fruits and veggies section under a dollar? What's a carrot or a lemon cost?

Looking at the weekly ad at Food4Less, tomatoes are 2lb/$3. I think that's like 50 cents each tomato. Onions are 89 cents/lb.

Doesn't it only practically matter if you're only buying ~one of those things? Who goes to a grocery store and buys one tomato? Feel like that could just round up or round random and it wouldn't be the end of the world.
