[QUOTE="BostonMike, post: 266727, member: 7251"]Aren't you paying taxes on that twice then?? If i take money out of my check, post taxes, and save it, and then cash it in, why should I be taxed again?? It's the same for any of us that put change into piggy banks and then return it. That change comes from out incomes which has already been taxed. So why tax us again?? I do save 59-82 copper cents as well. I just chuck them into a 5-gallon jug and when i get bored, i roll them into rolls. I have a good amount saved, no idea what to do with them yet. Anyway, my contribution to the thread. I only have about 150 or so wheat cents. Of that 150, i'd say 135 were taken from rolls or circulation. I find on average 1 wheat cent ever 2 weeks in circ.
