My first post in this thread.

Spent $15.50 in heavy metal at the local deli last night.
Cashier was new and was sort of flummoxed.
I had to explain to her that the pile of Kennedys she was looking at
were half dollars; not dollars. What a crazy world.

@Dearborn - I don't think so. I used other money, too. And thanks.

This does not count. You have to spend them. Deposits do not count.

Ahh, so not paying a bill electronically doesn't count?

Nope. You need to get them out in the wild.

Sure, you culd have paid the bill in person, but they may not like having to haul 420 half dollars to the bank.
