I complemented a $20 bill with an Ike and $4.00 in halves to buy a souvenir t-shirt and, get this, a cassette with digital downloads at a concert. That makes a total of $5.00 in coins spent.

I spent six dollar coins and $3.00 in halves to buy groceries and then I complemented a $100 bill with a single dollar coin to pay for replacement batteries for four watches. That's $10 total in coins for that trip.

Today, I spent four dollar coins and a half at an auto parts store to buy a PCV valve for my car. That's $4.50 total for that trip, for a combined total of $14.50 in coinage.

$32,916.50 to go.
