Penny related, but sorta, kinda off topic.

If you cut your own garden flowers (or buy a bouquet at the grocery store) throw a couple SHINY pennies in the vase. That tiny bit of copper will keep the water fresher than the pack of preservatives you get w/store bought flowers.

I was a little curious why they had to take so many trips back and forth to the bank. They could have, you know, just done the math and estimated how many pennies were needed based on the size of the room and a given penny. Heck, if they really wanted to be green they could have limited themselves to TWO trips maximum!
