I hate $1 bills. They clutter up my wallet and aren’t worth jack.

Give me a coin any time. I’d rather have four quarters than a stinking $1 bill. Bring on the $5 coin too.

I'd much rather have 10 one-dollar bills 'cluttering' my pocket that 10 coins. The weight is quite different.

I have an issue with the current-— last 15 years at least—billfolds which are made for women.

The change part of the billfold is not large enough to hold much more than $3 of change right now. They are too small & the ‘pocket gusset’ isn’t large enough to easily get coins into it nor to get coins out of it. I am constantly dumping all my coins onto the counter to get just a few of them. The change part breaks the zipper FAR before the rest of the billfold is worn out. I used to get a number of years from one billfold, but now am lucky if I get 2 years.

IF we are pushed into $1 coins, this problem will only be worse.

Women don’t carry money in their pants pockets!!!!!

But we do carry & SPEND money!!!

Someone needs to halt this nonsense!!!
