Project $100k - Circulating U. S. Half Dollar Coins

I am pleased to report spendage as follows:

9/2/16
$3.50 at a Quik Trip

9/3/16, before 11 AM my local time:
$0.50 at Jack-in-the-Box
$3.50 at Circle K

This totals out to $7.50.

$87,646 thus remaineth.

I ditched three more JFKs at Quik Trip.

$87640 and we're there.

Thankfully I've been keeping an improvised note pad (piece of paper folded halfway repeatedly until sized for my shirt pocket) with which to document my transactions.

It is approaching noon o'clock in my time zone and here is what I have to report so far:

One JFK in the express line at Albertson's. The nice lady cashier noted that "you don't see these very often!". I told her I get them from the bank to look for silver, and those that aren't silver get spent.

Two JFKs at a convenience store that used to be called Gas City. It's now a Shell station. I wanted an iced tea since I was out and about.

Seven more JFKs were ditched at a Circle K (a different one from my last report) for two 2 liter bottles of Diet Coke.

So....by my reckoning, this makes $5 worth that have been cast off into the wild, awaiting for a roll hunter out there to notice the counterstamps that I placed on all of them.

$87,631 is now the size of that mountain that's staring us down. I say we stare it down!

Lunch at El Plubito's $14.00 plus $2.00 tip. Webekin

$87,612.00

spent $4.50 in halves at the grocery store.

$87,604.00 to go * corrected total

There are two transactions today to report.

#1: A Quik Trip convenience store on the way to work, which got to see seven more of my half dollars this morning.
#2: I stopped off at Burger King for lunch. My last time there, the cashier said something to her co-workers about the dollar bills I used that had Where's George stamps on them. So today, she got six counterstamped half dollars.

Total today is $6.50, which trims the grand total to $87,591.
