(NEXSTAR) – Some McDonald’s patrons across the United States may notice a difference in how their cash transactions are rounded up since the production of pennies has been halted.

Following President Trump’s earlier decision to cease minting pennies, certain McDonald’s locations are experiencing penny shortages. As a result, customers paying with cash might not receive the exact change they anticipate.

McDonald’s USA addressed the issue in a statement to Nexstar, saying, “In light of the nationwide discontinuation of pennies, some of our locations may face challenges providing exact change. Our team is diligently working on long-term strategies to ensure simplicity and fairness for our customers. This challenge impacts retailers nationwide, and we are in ongoing discussions with the federal government to seek further guidance.”
