Go to the bank and buy more rolls! I can't really relate at the moment, I've got over $200 in cents waiting to be gone through...

Mostly I browse ebay bidding 3/4 melt value for things and watching for anything that's been miscategorized or poorly worded.

I have a rather small collection. and I can't quite go to bank at 11 oclock at night, which is usually when I become bored.

I already went through my whole family's coin jar's and made a wish list with ABP on them.

I guess what I can start to do is take inventory like yo guys mentioned. Any software I can download for free? that any1 knows about?
Rest in Peace

You can scour. Look for coins. Check the furniture. Under and behind furniture, especially dressers. Dirty clothes on the floor, the dryer & lint trap. The vacuum cleaner, uh, outside.

Yeah! Outside! Check the car! Under the seats and mats, and cupholders and glovebox. Keep going, around the entry and garage doors and in the play area. Around mailboxes.

I've gotten gas money, and feed myself and friends this way before. I've scoured on a Navy ship many times and usually ended up with more than a dollar. Then down to the enlisted club and the loose slots in the basement.

Or save it up and get a metal detector....

If it's night time you get bored there are numerous coin related things you could be doing. First you case the neighbors houses. That means to watch them. If you see a patern where they go out consistantly at the same time, rob them of any coins you find. Many 711's are open at night and you could rob them of all their change. Not many cops go looking for a criminal that steals only change. Find a busy corner in a busy, large city and stand on the corner with a pan, jar or can and beg for coins. Make sure you tell everyone you don't want any of those lousy bills.
By the way if you don't already have Excel on your computer, just ask anyone you know with Microsoft and they would have that program. Fantastic for a coin inventory. Or you could steal that also.
Contact us from jail and let us know how things are going.
