That would bug me that they're cheating me out of half a penny.

I literally throw away every penny that comes into my possession so no big deal there.

Keep the ones that are 1981 and before because they are all copper and worth 2.5cents.

He's doing his part to fight inflation. The government keeps printing money, and penny by penny, Lenas throws it away...

You get a gallon of gas for 3.99 cents? Or is that 5 thousandths of a dollar in your solution, which is half of a penny?

Bah, you're right. Sometimes I just suck at multiple-unit math.

Thank you, I thought it was Gossamer, from WB cartoons (and, yes, I had to look up that name).
