Yep, to make prices appear cheaper than they actually are

They cost more to produce than their actual value so we're paying for them with our taxes too

[very puddled]

dont mind the old pennies myself its the 5p's that get on my tits [ too small] and you find them all over your god damn house [ slippery little suckers get everywhere]

Spare a thought for Barry Scott of Cillit Bang!

He needs 1 & 2p coins for that amazing clean the tarnish off a coin trick.

How would you like to be the hero (a real man's man) of domestic cleaning products and have something like the abolishment of copper coins forced on you?

See nobody thought of that did they! Why am I not surprised. Huh!

As a tight git I feel obliged to tell you that the coin star machine takes at least 7% of your money for counting it. You could buy a loaf of bread with that 70p!

Not good!! Anyway, perhaps it's just me. . . . isn't part of the fun counting it???
