Spent $9 in halves at the beer store.

I had off of work today so I hit up a few banks I normally wouldn't because they are closed when I usually go by them. Picked up some $2 bills and a bunch of dollar coins to spend in the next few weeks.

I spent $2 in dollar coins at a laundromat (their machines have two slots-one for quarters and another for dollar coins). Then, I spent $9.50 ($9 in dollar coins and a single half) to buy a Subway salad, chips, and a drink. Later, I spent a single dollar coin to buy a snack from an ice rink's vending machine. Next, I spent a single half to help pay for gas. This is $13 total in coins.

$4,274 to go.

Where do you guys get your dollar coins? My banks (PNC and BB&T) rarely has any, apparently not many people like them in my area, although both are well-stocked with $2 bills.)

Over the past week, I've spent $7 at Burger King, and gave $1 as change in mixed Sacagawea and Presidential dollar coins.

We gave out at Farmers market in change and other spots $393 in half dollars in the two weeks since my last post. Last week was the first week in a while without receiving any small dollar coins, so only $6 handed out in them paying bills. So the total I circulated was $400. But also, I found another uncirculated Kennedy half dollar in one of the rolls of 2002 - after the last "circulation date". Another coin for my small coin collection!
