One cent dollar equals IDR 130. Here in my country, with that amount of money we can buy nothing. The lowest price here is IDR 500 or equals 3 cent USD for 3 pieces of candies. So, I need 3 cents USD for shopping. Less than that, I get nothing. How about in your country? What can 1 cent USD buy in your place?

USD 0.01 is also SGD 0.01 here. we don't even have one cent coins anymore. they phased them out. so 1cent can buy nothing. ok, i think can, buy my opinion.

@Ayuriny but if you can't buy anything with it, you can donate it to the charity. cos when many one cents accumulate, it would help the needy a lot. esp when it can change to IDR 130.

One cent in USD means nothing here. It is even no more than 0.10 yuan here. 1 yuan can buy a piece of newspaper. As to 0.10 yuan, I can't think out what I can buy. And people will not bow down to pick up this money on the ground

Can't you buy even a piece of candy with 0.10 yuan?

@Ayuriny I wonder whether the money will be enough to buy a candy, probably not. The seller would rather give you the candy rather than getting 0.10 yuan

@youless whether we get a candy or not, it also depends on the seller's generosity.

@JohnRoberts The sellers don't sell the candies in pieces. So how much money do you need to buy food (the cheapest one) ?

Can you estimate how much is one piece of candy in your place?

1 cent = Rs0.66.....we get nothing here for that much. Rs1 would get me a small candy/toffee or a vicks cough drop.

So 1 cent USD is not enough for buying a small candy.

So, 1 cent USD equals 0.67 Rs. Can you buy any food with 0.67 Rs in your country?
