Penny’s Out Nickel’s Getting a Makeover | Amarillo News

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

The Senate just passed the Common Cents Act — a game-changer for your wallet. It officially ends penny production and lets businesses round cash transactions to the nearest nickel, simplifying change while cutting costs. Plus, it targets the nickel, which costs more to make than it’s worth, by testing a new, cheaper metal mix — all while keeping both coins legal tender. This is one bill that could reshape how we handle small change — and it’s just getting started. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
