<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 423819, member: 4552"]Got taken usually depends on how much you paid, what it is, do you want it, are you planning on reselling it and lots of other things. If you paid a dollar or so for that coin, for most that is no big thing. </p><p>Around me for instance the sales taxes are 10.25% now. So if you bought a garden hose for say $10.00 you would end up paying more in taxes than you paid for that coin. At a bar I stopped in at, very occationally of course, a Martini is $5.75 and that is not a real big one. Gasoline is still about $4/gallon around me. 6 of us went to a restaurant about 20 years ago in downtown Chicago. The bill was ovder $800. The waiter sneared at us when leaving a $100 tip. In a friends garage where a few were working on a car I pointed out the floor was full of coins. One guy said bending over for a few dollars in coins is just not my thing. </p><p>So never complain about anything that cost a dollar or so.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
