How fast are pennies becoming obsolete where you live?

Asked by wundayatta (58722points) February 6th, 2009

I find that more and more, vendors round up to the next nickel instead of handing out pennies. It doesn’t happen all the time, but it is happening more often. If I had to guess, I’d say that maybe a quarter of the time, pennies are obsolete.

Is this happening where you live? How often? What do you do with your pennies when you get them? Any good stories about it?
