Kwik Trip is eliminating pennies at its Midwest stores, rounding cash prices down to the nearest five cents as penny supplies dwindle.
Kwik Trip is phasing out pennies at its 900 Midwest stores, rounding down cash purchases to the nearest five cents as penny supplies run out.
The change, effective immediately, benefits customers with cash payments—such as $1.04 rounding to $1.00—while credit and digital transactions remain exact.
The move follows the U.S. Treasury’s decision to stop minting pennies due to production costs exceeding face value, with no federal guidance on handling the transition.
The policy, which will remain in place until a legislative solution is enacted, is being implemented gradually as stores deplete their penny inventory.
Kwik Trip updated its registers to automate rounding and emphasized the change aims to improve the guest experience, though it acknowledged potential confusion.
Kwik Trip está eliminando los centavos en sus tiendas del Medio Oeste, redondeando los precios en efectivo a los cinco centavos más cercanos a medida que disminuyen las provisiones de centavos.
