<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim Dale, post: 8155303, member: 100459&quot;]I don&#039;t know if this is too off topic, but, since I became a coin collector, I keep all my coins that come from the change I get when I purchase something.&nbsp; I have a lot of coins that are dated after 1964 (except the Kennedy Half Dollars 65-70).&nbsp; My wife keeps a mason jar for the change I give her. I don&#039;t know how many full mason jars she has.&nbsp; I&#039;m the culprit that has caused a shortage of coins that could be used for change.&nbsp; Before I put a coin in her mason jar, I give it a &quot;look-over&quot; to see if there is something about it that needs to be put into my coin collection.</p><p>Anyway, yesterday, I went to a Dollar General (I don&#039;t know if this store is localized or regional or national.&nbsp; It&#039;s a modern-day five and dime store.)&nbsp; Getting back to my story, I bought some tape that cost me $5.89, so I gave her a $5 and $1.&nbsp; I was told they didn&#039;t have change.&nbsp; Well, I saw her cash register and all of the &quot;pockets&quot; were full.&nbsp; She even had a couple of Kennedys.&nbsp; Anyway, I asked her to give me my money back.&nbsp; Some how, she magically found a dime and a penny.&nbsp; We have about 5 of these stores and each of them have a cup that you can &quot;round up&quot;.&nbsp; Anyway, at the end of the day, those coins either go to the store or to the pockets of the cashier.</p><p>Like I said, I&#039;m sorry about getting &quot;off topic&quot;, but I&#039;m curious if any of you have seen this action in your stores.&nbsp; (My wife pays for everything with her VISA.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
