<p>[QUOTE=&quot;andrgo, post: 154840, member: 6181&quot;]I swear to God I tried like <b>every </b>method to just get some new coins to add to my collection and NONE of them worked!</p><p><br /></p><p>- Woke up at 7:35AM to go <b>metal detecting</b> at the beach/picnic area. Guess what I find? Beer caps! Aluminum foil! Can tabs! And two dimes (1968, 1988 - whoopdee doo..)</p><p><br /></p><p>- Then I drive 20 miles out of my way to go to the <b>flea market</b> which I had to pay a parking fee on top of that. Did anyone have a single coin to sell there like most flea markets do? &#039;Course not! Nice waste of my late morning.</p><p><br /></p><p>- Went to the <b>coin shop</b>! Oh, but it&#039;s labor day weekend so it was closed Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! I mean I have only lived in this town now for like six years and the coin shop has been there the whole time. The one day I FINALLY decide to visit it, when it normally would be open, it&#039;s closed.</p><p><br /></p><p>- And last but not least, I would have went to the <b>bank </b>which was open until 12:00pm (only the drive up) but I know they wouldn&#039;t have liked it very well if I would have wanted 40 rolls of pennies and 20 rolls of nickels through the window or vacuum tube thing so that eliminated the possability of going there. Banks have been around for centuries, you&#039;d think by now they would have taken into consideration that the majority gets paid on Fridays and that most people have weekends off. MAYBE perhaps the majority of Americans would like to cash their checks in on their day off, so why not have the bank open all day? Hmmm, I guess my idea doesn&#039;t make sense or something because no bank I know of has tried it yet.</p><p><br /></p><p>- I went to a bunch of <b>garage sales</b>, most of them put on by old people (whom once in a great while you&#039;ll find have some coins for sale.) All of the garage sales I went to were either shutting down and they had most of the stuff packed up by the time I got there (funny because I did my garage saling around 2pm, it wasn&#039;t THAT late) or they had a bunch of boring crap like baby&#039;s clothes or cassettes. No coins.</p><p><br /></p><p>So there&#039;s my rant. 0/5 methods worked for getting some coins. I thought I would have got a lot of coins this weekend like I had planned on. Nope, nothing. I&#039;m pretty disappointed. <u><b>Nothing</b></u>to put in my collection today. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
