googoo Valued Member United States 466 Posts	Posted 12/31/2011 5:06 pm I was recently told about a tradition my friend's mother used to do when she was a child. Her mom would give her silver coins to put in her pocket to ensure prosperity in the new year. I grabbed out a handful of extra silver and am getting ready to load up my pockets. Make sure you do it before the clock strikes 12 though. Hey with the economic times being tough I'll take whatever little help I can get! Happy new year all Report this Post to the Staff
