I feel like I have put more money into the take a penny leave a penny than I've taken (so a negative tplpr). Maybe 0.8 but it's a wild guess. I wonder if the jars ever get full enough that the clerk has to empty it? does it go into their pocket?

I’ve never taken a penny nor left a penny, but I’ve probably thrown a couple hundred bucks into the Ronald McDonald House bucket in the drive thru.

I feel like the effort to take or leave a penny is worth way more than a penny.

when i worked at a gas station, if the dish got real full i would start pulling a penny out for customers who paid in cash on totals with 1/6 on the end

I crave acknowledgement so I always look the cashier in the eye and place five fresh red pennies in the tray. I nod, crisply turn and scream out in a quick jog.

I've never engaged with it one way or the other. Pennies should be abolished.

Oh I always thought it said "Take a penis, leave a penis". The penny thing makes a lot more sense.

Honestly not sure I've ever actually seen one of these. I would neither take nor leave a penny if I did though. Who the hell uses cash these days?

I've never done either. It's all a big scam by the copper industry. Do your research.
