Wisconsin Grocery Stores Stop Giving Coins As Change

Grocery store customers are in for a new experience.  When shopping at Pick ‘N Save or Metro Market stores in Wisconsin, customers will no longer be given coins as change.  When you pay with cash you will be asked to either round up your bill for a charitable cause – or the change you would have received will be applied to your loyalty card and you can use it the next time you come in to buy groceries.  There is apparently a nationwide coin shortage.  The U-S Treasury says the coronavirus pandemic has caused the problem.
