Usually people just throw the pennies away and leave it alone for it to collect dust. Are you the type of person that does that?

Or do you actually use it?

I'm more of yes and no, sometimes when I buy from a store they usually give me a few pennies so I just say "Keep the change" because pennies can accumulate in your pocket and I don't really feel like sorting it out.

Though, best way to get rid of pennies is to give it to children, they won't know a difference either way. They'll think of it as a toy.

Everything I see is just a image of my thoughts "Always looking for a better day..."

I either give it or throw it in some storage I like to call the "shrapnel jar".

I use them. You'll never know when you need a few.

There is no such thing as someone who doesn't like the PS3, there is only poor people who can't afford one. PS3 owners pity you and hope you can one day get out of poverty.

I keep my pennies in a bowl in my room and hold on to them until the bowl starts over flowing. Then I head tot he bank and exchange it for paper and less coins. Or I just donate them to charity.

I keep them... copper is becoming more and more valuable these days, and soon the copper the penny is made from will be worth more than the penny itself! So I say keep those pennies!

I don't know why but I've taken to leaving them places. Not just around my house but I will purposely drop a penny, nickle or dime on the side walk or something for some one else to find. It always brightens my day to find even a few cents laying around so why not spread the joy? I know a lot of them just get kicked aside but I know at least a few make it into some ones pocket.

sometimes I'll make a game of it and see how far I can roll a coin down the street.

I have a big jar in my bedroom filled with pennies. I won't stop on the street to pick up a stray penny, but I won't abandon ones that I receive with my change.

I've heard that it costs the government 2 cents to create one penny, so they should really start rounding all prices to the tenth, just to save money.

They have already started discussing getting rid of pennies and rounding to the nearest 5 cents

Ah, now that you mentioned it, by impulse when I see a penny on the ground I automatically pick it up. I don't know why, but I guess I still believe the "lucky penny" superstition.

If I have them lying around, I'll put them in my change bucket.

Otherwise I don't think I've ever used a penny. It's not like you can buy anything with one or five or a hundred of them.

If I were tied up, would you ring my bell?

I'd have to say I do save up pennies and all of my change. It's just that I have a habit of keeping all of my change and making sure it all goes in the little cups and boxes I have, so I can turn it into paper money. So yeah, I do think pennies are valuable.

I read this as "Are Penises valuable to you"

I suppose if i've got a thousand pennies laying around, i'll probably cash em in at a coinstar, otherwise, i just throw em into a bowl whenever I find em laying around. They're not important, persay, but if I find one, i'll snag it if it's not going out of my way to do it.

I stick all my change in my cute little piggy bank. And leave it there until I finally remember it's there, and end up with 60 dollars in change.
