👋 A heads up about pennies — and your change!
As many of you may have heard, the U.S. Government has officially discontinued the production of pennies. As a result, when pennies are unavailable, cash transactions at Walker Home Medical will have any change due rounded to the nearest nickel.
How rounding works on cash transactions:
• Ending in .01 or .02 → rounds DOWN to .00
• Ending in .03 or .04 → rounds UP to .05
• Ending in .06 or .07 → rounds DOWN to .05
• Ending in .08 or .09 → rounds UP to .10
This rounding applies only when pennies are unavailable for exact change. Card and electronic payments are not affected and will continue to be processed to the exact cent. Your existing pennies remain valid currency and are still happily accepted!
We appreciate your understanding as we navigate this nationwide change. As always, thank you for trusting Walker Home Medical with your care. 💙
