THE NEXT BIG THING?

An unidentified Dunkin' Donuts store is getting rid of pennies (unless customers really want pennies, in which case, Ok). Here's the report from Consumerist.
The anti-penny movement is a modern classic that seems to bubble up every few years. There are obvious reasons for this — pennies are a hassle, you can't buy anything with them, etc.
There's also the fact that it costs the government 1.7 cents to make one penny. So the more pennies we make, the more money we lose.
