Message:: [QUOTE="AngelKitty, post: 1483996, member: 37889"]Want collectibles for face value while making money? Get a job as a cashier. Srsly. I can't tell you how many star notes, $2 bills, silver coins, wheat and copper memorial pennies, foreigns, etc I found while working at McDonald's a few years ago. A good chunk of my junk silver and nearly ALL of my star notes came from my cash registers. Keep about $20 in various denominations on you at all times and switch out the good stuff you find - and you'll be going through thousands of dollars a day that way, increasing your chances of finding good stuff. My managers never cared if I switched things out, as long as the register balanced out correctly in the end. The best part? It's a JOB, so you GET PAID TO DO IT, meaning you can buy more stuff or save up for college or bills or whatever while earning valuable real-world work and people experience and building up a work ethic because cashiering and customer service is HARD. Yes, it's tough work, not gonna lie, but the fun of searching through your drawer and finding that treasure balances it out. You might not get all the crisp, mint-state bills and coins, but as a younger collector I think it's one of the best ways to get a collection of anything going while also earning money and, more importantly, valuable work experience.[/QUOTE]
