Well, Nina, you just make it a point to get some of your cash for the week/month in dollar coins and halves, then spend them.

Ahh, Argentum, good point.
Fuzzy, I have my own laptop and internet access--I just always send the dollar coins out the door that I get at work, and soon will be leaving my job.
What's our ETA?

Nina, Just go to the bank like I do. They are happy to sell me a box at face value.  ================= If you take our average spent per month (SPM),  we should finish sometime January 2017 However, this project was slow at first. So, if you only use the last 4 months for an average SPM, that should put completion sometime March 2016.

Spent 9 Presidential dollars this week and one 2000 Sacagawea. I've spent a lot more since my last post but I've lost count so I'm just gonna start fresh again this week. 1 Rutherford B Hayes 2 Abraham Lincoln 1 Thomas Jefferson 1 John Quincy Adams 1 James Madison 1 Andrew Johnson 1 James K. Polk 1 John Tyler 1 2000 Sac. A shame the 2012's haven't been released for circulation. We'd be lucky to get any of the remaining presidents released for circulation if the current demand for dollar coins continues. I must admit though. It's kinda fun spending circulated dollars too. It means they're getting used! $85,332.50 to go!

UGH. made a mistake trying to use funny money at Target. My bill was $25.45 and all I had was the following. 1 $5 bill 1 $2 bill 8 $1 bills 10 $1 coins (8 gold and 2 SBA) 1 half I gave the cashier $25 at first. the bills first then the dollar coins. She liked the $2 bill but thought the dollar coins were quarters (all of them, including the gold ones) This misunderstanding took a pretty lengthy discussion to resolve. When we both understood that I had just given her $25 I handed her the half. She had NO idea what it was. none. I told her a few times that I just needed a nickel back and finally she gave it to me. I feel sorry for the guy behind me in line. He was obviously unhappy about waiting for her to get the picture. Anyway.. $85,312.50
