Today I went to Walmart and checked the machine first thing. Nothing.

An hour later when I was leaving Ifound 38 cents. Nothing worth photographing.

I'm getting accustomed to this "money for nothing" thing,
but am ready to move on to the "chicks for free" next step :)

I couldn't stick around long enough for this guy to leave since my brother was with me, but this is worth a post...

At Walmart, this guy was at 5e Coinstar machine with an entire SHOPPING CART full of coin jars. He must've been cashing in his life savings, from the looks of it. As far as I could tell, he was getting a cash voucher, so if there was over 500 dollars to dump into the machine, imagine how much money he lost to Coinstar fees... it's probably enough to buy a basket full of groceries!

This reminds me of what happened mid-December last year... a man and his wife (I presume) were at one of my supermarkets and he had literally a cart full of quarters. Must have been at least $3-4,000 worth! No, I didn't stick around. Funny, but a week later is when I hit my motherlode silver find (37 silver quarters, 34 silver dimes) at the same machine.
CRH Nickeloholic. 1,600,000 nickels searched in eight years! Have found FOUR complete Jefferson sets!
