$7.50 today at the most glorious Chinese restaurant in the airport. While I'm thinking of it, I want to look it up and find out if it's a chain. Their orange chicken was AMAZING.

Also, I brought my mother a purse as a gift. You must never give a purse or wallet that has no money in it, because then the wallet/purse will always be empty, so I put a Sac in there. She said she plans to hold onto it and not spend it, so I'm not counting that one, but I want it noted for the record that it is, in fact, out there.

And thus, I GET TO BREAK THE NEW HUNDRED!! $94,599.50!

Let's see, I spent all in SBA/SAC dollars $14 at garage sales, $28 in gas, and gave my son $10 in spending money- $52

Leaves $94,547.50. Not sure why the .50 as I thought this was only dollars? Separate thread should be for spending $100K in half dollars.

Used a roll of Kennedy halves at the grocery store.
The guy gave me a hard time and said "we don't accept these"
I said it's US coinage and you have to. (may or may not be true)
He calls the manager and they take the roll

Stopped at the bank for some dimes today and asked if they had any large dollars while I was there. I explained THREE times that I wanted LARge dollars.. but he came back with 10 rolls of small ones. I was about to say I didnt want them, but I saw that 8 of the 10 rolls had SBAs on the end, so I took them.
Should be fun spending them!

$1.50 for a snack
$94,533

I spent 6 dollars and 1 half at the ethnic food festival then 1 dollar and 2 halves at the grocery store. 8.50 total.

I also spent several $2 bills (but these don't count). Most people like the $2 bills, they look at the half dollars funny, and they don't bat an eyelash at the dollar coins. It really is time to get rid of the dollar bill!

$94,481.50 to go.
