    Canada stopped using bills for $1 in like the 80s, then dropped the $2 bill in the 90’s. We have the “loonie” which is a $1 coin, and “toonie” which is the $2 coin.

    Carts depending on how premium the chain is, will either use a quarter coin ($0.25) or a loonie ($1.00).

    A few years ago we dropped the Penny, our 1 cent coin ($0.01). All purchases are rounded to the nearest 5 cents.
