Cuz when you’re a #billionaire, who cares about pinching #pennies?#US #penny production endsPennies are drying up faster than retailers anticipated following Trump's decision earlier this year to halt production of the one-cent coin. #Retail groups…are frustrated by the lack of guidance from the #Trump admin & lawmakers, forcing them to round down to avoid angering customers & violating laws in some states—potentially costing high-volume businesses significant #money.https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/us-retailers-left-short-changed-penny-production-ends-2025-11-01/?utm_source=braze&utm_medium=notifications&utm_campaign=2025_engagement

@Nonilex oh wow. I heard they were going to stop making pennies, but I assumed they were going to make rules about how to deal with rounding *first*.

@Nonilex I saw a sign up at my local Home Depot asking for pennies and wondered if it had to do with this. Their pricing is still not rounded, so it must be a real headache!

@Nonilex We did away with pennies in Canada years ago. If the amount is $2.42 they round down. If it is$2.43 they round up. Since most of our transactions are done electronically it really doesn't matter much. BABA (BUY ANYTHING BUT AMERICAN)
