Used $131.50 in halves to pay off my credit card bill at Sears today.

It was a little rough having to hustle up $1250 in a month to pay off my truck parts. I refuse to pay interest.

I remembered that someone had posted a prediction about the completion date for this project -- so I went back and started reading this thread from the beginning.

It was wquinn, on 5/16/12. His post is on page 9.

At the rate the dollars were being spent, the end date would have been 3/14/24.

Happily, many of you have access to boxes of these coins and I'm pretty sure we're going to beat that date!

It's been fun to participate, but I don't get out much and I only get to buy a roll or two from a friend at my local ooin club when she has extras. But they are fun to spend!!
