We       are fine here, but there are lots of restrictions and closings to try to       stem the spread of the virus....               NB>> 3000 pennies, 600 nickels, 300 dimes.... depends on how many one        NB>> has available to save along the way.... ;) Or maybe it's twice        NB>> that, nowadays.... ;)               MK> Closer to three times methinks or at least locally it is.              $90...? They run about $60 or so here.... I remember when one could       get a good single malt for $30, though...                NB>> That may be.... they keep threatening to get rid of pennies over        NB>> here, but so far it hasn't happened...               MK> It happened years and years ago here. I still have some in a metal        MK> cup stashed away somewhere. I am not sure why.               Nostalgia, no doubt... ;)               NB>> I still carry and use them... :)               MK> You can keep them. ;-)              Prices don't get rounded here... lots of times you'd get pennies in       change... unless you have some in the wallet/pocket to turn in to avoid       that.... ;)              ttyl neb              ...
