How would friends take it if we said to them to buy us bricks in their different locales? We would be good for the money. I have friends all over the country but think I may lose their friendship if I ask them to scoop up a $25 every now and then. LOL. Next time I see them I could just pick up the bricks.

You guys in the Midwest seem to get the best percentages, btw.

My birthday was last week and I told my family to get me pennies if they felt they had to give me something. They didn't listen though...a box of pennies just doesn't fit in the card very well...

Now that is a true friend. I think you would have a hard time getting folks to lug those bricks to support your obsession. Maybe you can get them to go pick up your groceries too. Just think what you could save in gas. Picking up bricks of pennies would be asking way too much of a friend. I actually do get one of the ladies at work to pick me up a couple of bricks whenever she has to make a company deposit at the bank.

If your percentages are low.. just sort more. If your percentages are high.. just sort more.

Now selling Copper pennies. 1.6x plus shipping. Limited amounts available.

I had my brother bring back some coins when he went to Switzerland. I'll be seeing him this August as we're all converging on the Outer Banks of NC for my parents 50th anniversary. He's from the other coast! Looks like at least a few rolls of pennies wouldn't be a problem!!

Are you throwing that out?

Hi,

I guess I'm in charge of making employee badges here.

So when someone loses their badge, I tell them that to get a new one, they need to go to the bank and get me a box of pennies.

(And my boss is watching me touch type this... :)

Well, my wife is off to Florida for an extended weekend, so i asked her to bring back a few rolls or boxes... we'll see if she finds time. This 50% dud box rate i've been getting around here is killin' me!

Considering Verizon Business service? Perhaps you'd like to consider a nice drain cleaner enema instead?
