            we cant ditch the 1p coin, otherwise we wouldnt get a 1p off a pint from the budget.

              It would just mean everything would go up to the nearest 2p. In saying that though, wouldn't it mean doing away with the other 'odd' coin the 5p? Otherwise you could still sell something for 99p which someone would either have to have the exact money for or lose the 1p?

                ON TOPIC:-


                Ingland should keep the penny, heard a rumor there's a company who if they need a washer, drill a hole in a penny and grind off the face and back.

                  ON TOPIC:-

                  some tory toff is deciding if to ditch these or not.

                  how do them children things learn to count start??

                  Should keep them, slot machine at seaside, dropping down exhaust see if got guts in it, then loose .1pm’s no deal

                  prices rise, suspect will be gone as some only used once and 6/10 live in a jar.
