Having grown up in Canada I prefer using dollar coins so I don't keep track of the number I spend here in the States. But I do have a funny story about a half... So I was getting my coffee at Starbucks and the price was $5.51. I couldn't resist  Gave her a $5 bill, a penny, and a half dollar. She looked at it funny and asked the guy who had been working there longer if they took half dollars. He said "yes". She then said "But there isn't a spot for it in the cash drawer". To which he replied " Just treat it like money"  -------------------------------------------------------------------- $71,746 to go
