Just for the record, I've already "hit the bottle" 3 times since my last post.

i wonder if they make silver patches, much like the nicotine patches? might help with withdrawals if they do.

I so enjoy these little diversions --- poor collector has to stop,
BUT only for a while. The house, the kids, the job, maybe a day or
maybe years.
Two days, two months, two years ... when the moment of stress comes
you will be right back on coins.
Gee, those sobriety tokens that one gets at the AA meetings - ya think
they are trying to turn drinkers into collectors?
"I just got a 6 month - what did you get?" Sound familiar?

That is a good thing. Smoking can kill you, coins can not... at least not directly.

And if you quit smoking you get a lot more money for coins

Anyway I feel your pain, I trying to buckle down and save my "coin allowance" for a key date. It is killing me not buying anything, especially since I have a couple hundred just staring at me in my paypal account.

I must admit I am watching a couple right now

I quit smoking 10 years ago. No problem
I quit drinking 4 years ago. No problem
I could not quit surfing ebay for coins even 1 day. Big problem.

LOL...thanks all for the support and comments, makes me feel much better knowing I'm not alone....I suspected I'd be in good company.

edgman, that's what got me...I had some small time cash in my paypal balance...so I spent that. if I had a couple hundred....man.

With apologies to "The Music Man:"

Oh we got trouble! ( trouble trouble )
Right here in CCF city ( trouble trouble )
It starts with "T" and that rhymes with "C" and it stands for "COINS!" ( trouble trouble )

Oh we got trouble, ( trouble trouble ) in CCF city ( RIGHT HERE!)
Remember the Maine and the GOLDEN RULE and the grading rules:

La la la la la la la la - ( trouble trouble trouble trouble trouble trouble )

The tell-tale signs of trouble? ( trouble trouble )
Does your son come home with a greysheet in his back pocket? ( trouble trouble )
Are certain words creeping into his vocabulary, such as :
"Slider" ( trouble trouble )
and
"Third Party Grading" ( trouble trouble )

I say this is a sign of the devil's work!

Join the chorus!
