Spent $30 in halves... but they were rolls that I had already spent! I got them from the bank, thinking they were mine that I brought in. They said they were from a business, so I got them. Turns out they were from the gas station I spent them at. Such a small town... no wonder I don't find silver in normal rolls here.

So, not sure if that really changes to total

I think they will count, since they were circulated. I am miles from my small bank, so I can almost guarantee that I don't get any repeats.

Took 35 Eisenhowers with me today. Went to pay for something and he was so impressed with them ..Never saw them before and bought all the rest that I had. Never saw someone so happy over getting coins that wasn't a collector. Maybe he will be one now!

I spent 11 at McDonald. The total was like 10.56. But I use dollar coins.

The lady said: Do you have anything other than these?
I was like: umm, I'm not going to use my bills.
