How much is 10 cents in Australia?

Ten cents in Australia? Honestly, it's just ten cents! Like, a dime, right? Remember when I was a kid, ten cents could buy you a little packet of those tiny, brightly colored lollies? Now? Forget about it. You can barely get a gumball for ten cents these days. It's crazy, isn't it?

I mean, what can you buy with ten cents? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. They’re practically worthless, just clinking around in my jeans pocket alongside the other loose change. I swear, I found a whole bunch of them the other day – maybe twenty or thirty – and I was like, “Great. More useless metal.” I ended up sticking them in a jar. Maybe I’ll finally get around to donating it to that charity box down at the supermarket, someday. It's pathetic, but it's true. A ten cent coin is practically a useless token of the past. Seriously, inflation is something else.
