Over a few years, I have spent over $700 in halves at places, but, since I never took an exact count, I am going to round it off to $700, even though I know I have spent more, but am sure I spent at least $700. So:

$21,823.50 or so, to go.

Fox, you posted on 9/29/2013 that you spent $500 in halves. Where these included in $700 you just noted

Until I hear back from Fox, going to remove those 500 from his post above. The result would be

$22,323.50 to go

You know what, Fuzzy, you may be right, but, besides that $500 I spent back then, I spent at least $400 worth in the years beyond. Just say $350, or $375. Sorry about that, because, I got a box of $500 and spent all, but around $125 of it, which the $125 I cashed in at a CoinStar, when I needed some paper cash. Hated to betray a bunch of halves like that though.

That's okay. I just happened to remember that other post, and double checked.

FYI - I have spent $1431.00 in halves since 7/16/2012 for this project
