I'm a little late with this post, but I used NINE "Prez" bucks last week for various jackpot games at the bowling alley(s).

I was supposed to use more at a restaurant on Thursday, but I forgot my tube full of dollar coins on my kitchen table before I drove off. Maybe this week.

I finally remembered to bring a large amount of dollar coins with me when I leave the house!

Yesterday, I went to the monthly brunch we have with old (and I mean 'old') co-workers from our time as stockboys in the grocery store in the 1970's and 80's.
I had a burger, fries, and a pop; and used 21 'prez' dollars for payment.

Later that day, I also stopped at another restaurant on the way to bowling. This time I just had two coney-dogs and a lemonade, and used 14 more 'prez' bucks for that meal.

After that, I used another three 'prez' dollars for another pop at the bowling alley.

All together, I used 38 'prez' dollars yesterday

$54,317.00 to go!

I came online to post my last dollar coin usage, but noticed (I believe) a math error for the current TOTALS number.

orange26 post left $54,315 to go, which I believe to be correct. However, Ynnad's post states he used 25 coins (6+2+6+11), so the new total due should be $54,290, NOT $53,294.

I used the last TWO 'prez' dollars I had in my pocket to help pay for pretzel nubs and cheese at the big coin show here in Warren, Michigan yesterday, so I think the new balance should be......

$54,288.00 to go!


PS: Sorry for calling out the math error, but even though I dropped out of college with just 4 classes shy of my accounting degree, I took enough math classes to give me a 'poke' when something looks peculiar to me. If the error is mine, please fix it, and I'll apologize and double the pills I take everyday.

Yesterday, at my Monday bowling league, I 'contributed' SIX 'Prez' dollars as payment for three games (Mystery Game, Strike Ball, and Over-Average). I won nothing!
