No.
If you would have asked me back before debit cards were commonplace, then I would have voted yes. Since most of what I purchase comes directly out of my bank account, it doesn't bother me as much as it used to.
I'm afraid if they did do away with pennies, then businesses would just round up to the nearest five cents on their products, i.e. $1.01 to $1.05. Four cents can make a difference to some people living on a budget.
