Inflation Strikes Hallmark

Pennies, nickels and dimes no longer take up our time Even a quarter's value falls shorter ~ no longer buys cheap valentines

Isn't that true!? I ususally make my own. Some cards now costs 5.00. Crazy! Although, I will confess to occasionally buying a beautiful Papyrus card. Once I heard that pennies were going to become obsolete, maybe you heard the same? Most people don't use them much anymore.
