What is 1cent($.01) in your place?

1 cent cannot get us anything here. Totally useless. People won't pick it up even though they see it lying on the floor. They even stop circulation of 1 cent. One US cent is worth 3 cents here. Still 3 cents is meanless.U have to have at least 10 cents to get a piece of sweet. Cannot recover my electricity and link up cost with the earning s here

I live in The U.S., so here's what you can get for .01 cents(1 penny) 1)You can make a wish, while throwing it into a fountain or wishing well. 2)If you have a wobbly table or chair, you can put one under the shortest leg to make it even. 3)If you put a couple in a can, it makes a pretty cool rattle. 4)You can give one to someone for their thoughts. 5)Or, you can do like i do and save them up in a bottle until you can buy something. p.s. I live in Las Vegas too, so we have penny slot machines too.

im in vegas, nevada now so a $0.01 cent is still a cent...but back in the philippines where i was born... a u.s. dollar cent is about 0.40 philippines centavos... a single HALLS candy is 0.50 centavos..

Hard to believe that this discussion was posted one year ago:) USD0.01 is no more than RMB0.07 here and it can't buy anything at all. Even we hardly see the banknotes which are less than RMB0.10 today. I love China

Being in the US, a cent is a cent. You can't do much with it, but 100 cents is a dollar, and you can buy a whole lot with a dollar (dollar stores!!!). The thing is, if we disregard the pennies, the small 1 cents, they will never add up. But if we keep em, they will start to grow and make dollars, and let us buy something nice.

I think I can buy one piece of candy around here, actually you can't buy much at all. Most of it is probably more than that anyway!

A cent is virtually worthless here in the United Kingdom, especially with the current exchange rate of $2 to a £1 sterling. To compare with the example that you made, I would probably require about 90 cents to purchase a standard bar of chocolate. I was already aware that earnings from Mylot would be of greater value to countries with a lower standard of living or economy, but I did not expect such a vast difference. If I earn the target of $10 here then my Paypal account will show around £5 after exchange, which would buy a 200 gram jar of coffee or 1 pound of cheese.

One cent can buy a piece of candy. Our money is equivalent to $42 in USD so our money had depreciated over the years. Anyhow, having a cent for 20 programs can add up, and in due time, it can be worthwhile to spend on something. Happy earning.

well one cent in my place is only $0.06 cents. Not impressive and these days the cheapest thing you can get here is for $0.25 cents which is actually just a bubble gum or sweet like a halls. But, every cent adds up eventually, you'll be surprised!

I don't think .01 can buy anything here any more. It is not even enough to pay tax on a dollar. Many years ago you could get a gum ball for a penny, but now even gum balls cost .25 cents. If you can find them on sale you can buy a package of Ramon Noodles for a dime or 10 pennies. They used to have .10 sales on produce, but I have not seen that in a year or two. I miss those days.

Hey man, what I see here is a real hot discussion!~ Like my countryman flowerhorn has said - the 1sen coin in our place has stopped circulation since last month. 1cent is approximately 3.15sen in our place, depending on the fluctutaion. 10sen for a sweet. In those days it was 10sen for 3 sweets, then it became 5sen for 2, now it's 10sen for 1....

haaah in my place a .01$ is .4 rupee here in my place and i cant buy a cheap chocolate to i need two more

$0.01 cannot buy anything in my country , no candy nothing . The convert rate here is high , $85JM to $1US , my country money is very weak against the $ .

one cent is 55 paise(indian coin)and so we can get any one choclate here . or we can give 50 paise to beggers in india. or we should keep or store in a kiddy bank for getting more coins and should use them for any purpose. or we can give 50 paise in hindu temples. or we can do one ,local phone call. and one more thing, now a days when we go public toilets in india,in bus stations and in some more places,we should pay 50 paise there.

In my country one cent is approximately 5 oere and that coin no longer exsist, the smallest coin is 50 oere (= 10 cents) There is absolutely nothing you can buy for one cent in my country, and I think it also hard to find things that you can buy for 50 oere which is our smallest coin. When I was a child I was able to buy candy for my coins, and I still remember the 5 oere and the 10 oere that existed at that time. I am not sure about the prices today, but everything is a much expensive today.

Hi ferdznk In our place, $1 is equivalent to 45 INR and so $0.01 has no value at all. Even for $1, we get hardly some vegetables, flowers and 1 kg of cheap fruits

$0.1 is RMB 1.RMB 1 can do many thing . you can by bus from the east of the city to the southern of the city . You can buy some good candies .You can buy ice cream and a bottle of water etc.

Hello lol i am from india, our currecy is rupee, a rupee has one hundred paisa, just like your one cent, with the devaluation , rising costs money is losing its value, a begger is reluctant to accept one rupee these days.. Thank you so much for this nice post, cheers God bless you. Prof
