There are shed loads of ideas knocking around, especially in our crazy heads. A lot of them are average, most are poor, but there are a few good ones out there. These ideas could be for businesses, products, anything, the problem is we just don't have time to make all of them, so instead we're sharing our ideas with the millions of people on the web that will probably never look at this blog. Good work Reuben... talking to yourself again.

99p Coin
In the 1950's people must have had a keen eye for a bargain, with WWII just finished you would have to. This is when shops must have had the ingenious idea of putting all their prices to £XX.99. Nowadays times have changed and we now know that you are only getting 1p off the original price, which really isn't that great a deal. Also back in the 1950's there must have been a lot more value attached to a 1p coin, whereas inflation has made the 1p coin barely even worth keeping hold of. I would actually rather throw it down the drain than keep it. So why do companies persist to take the 1p off, just round it up and everyone would be much happier. Either take it off or invent a 99p coin.

What's the point in having a £1 coin and a 99p coin when they're exactly the same? Not exactly a genius idea
