Would You Bend Down to Pick Up a Penny

Rolling up $20 in pennies takes a while and is bulky to carry around.

How often do you spot a penny on the ground anyway? if you found a penny every day for a year you have barely enough for a crappy happy meal at McDonalds (once you roll them and take them to the bank because NOBODY is going to count 365 loose pennies at a store).

Have you ever worked in retail? It does happen
