Today is a five cents day. I don't mind. A nickle can go a long way. For example, I can buy half a gum ball. I can spend my nickle to help pay sales tax. I can take my nickle and trade it for five pennies. Gee, I can even take my nickle and spin it on a table. Watch how fast it can go. Wow! How about you? What can you do with five cents?

THe only thing I can do with a nickel is place it with other nickels. Alone, I wouldn´t even know how to make it spin.

You can also use it in a slot machine! Who knows, you could get the jackpot and then you are left with a whole bunch of nickles.

And a whole bunch of nickles would be worth as much as $10.00. That's a lot of nickles.

@zebra2222 Haha, I did not know "a bunch" had a price to it. That is a lot of nickles, but they are good to have!

I don't have a piggy bank. I'll deposit in my pocket with the rest of my change.
