California Stores Rounding Pennies | Bakersfield News

from Bakersfield News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

California may soon let stores skip pennies by rounding cash transactions to the nearest nickel—thanks to a shortage of the tiny coin. While customers aren’t forced to accept it, some businesses like Blue Farm and Happy Jack’s are already adapting, with owners reporting running out of pennies and creatively managing odd cents. For penny-counters, even a missing cent can sting—but most shoppers seem okay with the change. It’s a small coin causing big ripples in everyday commerce.
