<p>[QUOTE="skane, post: 38847, member: 1927"]I'm starting to worry myself...When I'm bored at work and haven't een finding anything overly interesting in circulation, I am not going to the coke machien, entering my $, and then instead of buying anything, I press the button that sends back the amount you put in. However, it doesn't send back the exact coins you put in, but the same denomincations, just different coins. since it's mainly quarters that I use, I've reeived some 1982 and 1983 quarters and a coupel of 1965 and 1964 plus some statehood quarters some of which I haven't found in circulation yet.</p><p>Now this must border on insane. Today I was 'caught' as I did this a couple of times in a row when nothing interesting came back, and some girl asked me if I needed to swap coins with her so that I could get something...somewhat embarassing especially since I made the swap but didn't go back to the machine. However, I gave her a Texas quarter which momentarily distracted her 9she is English based on her accent) so I think she momentarily didn't realize that I never went back to the machine. </p><p>I think this whole coin collecting/finding thing is making me crazY!!!!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
