<p>[QUOTE="mralexanderb, post: 839452, member: 7851"]I've got $75 left to spend from my Sac/Native direct shipment. I spend them every day for lunch or coffee or whatever.

I think that the self check outs should dispense (and accept) the $1 coins. When someone gets them in change, they'll either keep them or spend them. That is circulation, to some degree. I think, after I spend my last $75 of the '09 Sac/NA's I'll do it again with the 2010's or maybe I'l be daring and get the 2001's!! Oh, that may be going too far. Bruce[/QUOTE]
