<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Michael W. Bradley, post: 7507414, member: 114144&quot;]I went to the drugstore for my second Covid shot. I glanced at the newspaper, the last time I bought one-some time ago-it was 75 cents or so.&nbsp; Oddly there was no price marked on it, so i asked the clerk who was busy with other customers. (I would have just left three quarters).&nbsp; She said: &quot;two dollars&quot;! So I left. I only hoard pre-1982 copper pennies. (We had this terse discussion before). Only I will add that if in the event of a WAR or some other serious crisis, the price of copper &quot;could&quot; skyrocket.&nbsp; (I well remember my father bringing home pocketfuls of silver change. So who knew)? And of course &#039;eventually&#039; the Law against melting down coins would have to change. Yet I heard that even the zinc is worth more than a penny now. (I think I have the side-effect of &#039;tinnitus&#039; from the first shot).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
