Ended - Project $100k- Circulating Dollar And Half Dollar Coins

ok, could not resist

6 G$ on shake

$89,996 to go

I came close to paying for a car with boxes of halves. Was going to order them and roll search them, then pay for the car with the duds, but the wife insisted I didn't. Would have put a nice dent in the tally! :-)

Over the past few days I spent 1 half dollar at the grocery store, 2 dollar coins for fundraiser candy bars, 1 half at the post office, 2 dollars at Panera's, and 6 dollars at Little Caesars. This is $11 total.

$89,981 to go.

I am glad to see that we finally eclipsed the first 10K barrier. I wish I was the one to do it. Oh well. Keep spending those dollars and half dollars everyone.

I agree. The goal is to get them handled and used.

$5 on gas

My only purchace of the day of any kind: Spent $1 presidential on a bottle of apple juice from a campus club.

Story: After I handed the gal manning the store my GOLDEN dollar, she hands it to a guy member of that club saying "Do you want to take this with the rest of the SILVER dollars?" [Probably all the goldens I spent there].

I had to correct them to the fact that they neither looked like nor were made of silver.

EDIT: $89,963.00 to go

Lucky mechanic.
