Spent $40 in halves paying my Menards bill this morning. The girl asked "Do you use these everywhere you go?" and I told her yes.

I spent 3 golden dollars and 7 Kennedys on stuff. I probably spent more but this is what I wrote down. I was running out of dollar coins to spend. Just got a roll today (1 roll is never enough). Now I can start again.

$63,090 to go.

When I went to Steak-N-Shake for dinner about 4am, there was only 1 other table being used. 2 LEO were the only other people in the place. I picked up their ticket too

11 Ike$ for both meal tickets

I had left 5 Ike$ as tip, but at check-out the server knew me and said she had to spend one of the $2 bills I normally leave as tip. I asked her if she wanted Ike$ or a $2 bill as tip, and she said she would rather have the $2 bill. I was leaving 5 Ike$ as tip, so I replaced 4 IkeS with two $2 bills

counting for Project 100K:
11 Ike$ for dinners
1 Ike$ included in tip
======
12 total
