        @USATODAY I believe in the next 5 years or so. Almost everything is done that way now. Bills, buying online etc.

        @USATODAY We've managed perfectly well with £1 coins in the UK which replaced our £1 Notes. No problem.

        @USATODAY I prefer bills. Coins are a headache, as they take up too much space. In Europe, the euro gets annoying quickly...

        @USATODAY Preferred dollar bills over coins, would make more sense to drop the expense of pennies &we'd save time in line making change

        @USATODAY In Canada there are $1 & $2 coins. They can sure weigh you down over the course of a day. Use paper bills, I say.

        .@USATODAY : The $1 bill should be retired. More $2 bills should be used and definitely the $1 coin should become much more visible.

        @USATODAY I like both. But the problem is I rarely see dollar coins in circulation.
