Quote: Do the cashiers at Sears cringe when they see you coming to pay your credit card bill each month? I used to work there 10 years ago and let's just say we didn't part on good terms. At the time in order to get the employee discount you had to pay cash or use a Sears charge card which is the only reason I have one. The last 2 times the cashier just took my word for it that is was all there. All of the previous times they would have to count it out, then get a manager to count, and so forth. If I can't afford to pay cash for something I don;t buy it until I do or if there is a 0% finance offer which is why Home Depot got a lot of halves dropped on them over the years. I only use my credit cards if I have to order something online or if they are offering 5% cash back at gas stations. I pay my bill off in full every time that there is a balance because I refuse to give my money to some one else. Same with coin counting machines. I will never go to a Coinstar or a bank that charges a fee. I would rather use that "fee or percentage" to buy donuts or pizza for the tellers who hook me up than pay a fee that goes into some bank execs pocket for his million dollar bonus at the end of the year.

Fuzzy, you got the numbers for us? sorry, but I don't have those numbers.  2 SBA$ in snack machine == 2 total $9108 to go (adjusted since total is a little off) Total Ike$ Spent on Project 100K = 7827

Does trading halfs for dollar bills at the grocery store count? They do end up in circulation.
