<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LaCointessa, post: 3353260, member: 87186&quot;]Hi my dear fellow CoinTalkers.&nbsp; I wanted to stop in and let you know that I AM ABOUT TO LOSE MY LAST MIND!!! Why??? Why? Because someone on eBay&nbsp; is selling what looks to be a quart size jar of pennies for <b><i><span style="color: #ff0000">ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS!!!</span></i></b> </p><p><br /></p><p>The jar doesn&#039;t even seem to be full to the brim.</p><p>The sale is made &quot;as is, no refunds, no warranties.&quot; </p><p><br /></p><p>How many pennies do you think can fit in a quart jar? I consulted our friendly search engine and found that a quart jar will accept approximately 1,260 ($12.60) pennies. </p><p><br /></p><p>If that is the case, then this seller will make $987.40 if he can get a sucker, I mean, a buyer, to agree to pay approximately 78 cents per penny.</p><p><br /></p><p>Golly, I have tons of pennies including slews of wheaties and I have empty washed quart size pickle jars. Hmmm....perhaps I can actually plan to retire before I drop dead or catch a stroke.</p><p><br /></p><p>Okay, I am finished koinkvetching now. I pass the baton on to the next CTer who needs it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
