2009 nickels & dimes - save them?

I just read some articles that say the mint has ended production of 2009 nickels and dimes, and that there hasn't been that low a mintage since:
"The US Mint's coin production page indicates that 36.00 million 2009-P Jefferson Nickels and 33.36 million 2009-D Jefferson Nickels have been produced. There has not been a nickel struck for circulation with a mintage this low since the 1959 Jefferson Nickel with 27.248 million. Last year's production figures were 287.76 million and 352.80 million for Philadelphia and Denver, respectively."
So does that mean hang onto all 2009 nickels & dimes?
Is what that says really true?
And for that matter, it looks like 2009 halves are real low mintage too.
Thanks

I bought 8 boxes of nickels in hopes of getting them with no luck. Never even seen one.
