I'm Sick of Change

[Lancer]

Every time I go to the Phils I cancel my phone and get a new # when I return. When I go to Safeway I punch in the # instead of using my card which would identify me. When the check girl says "Thank you Mr "******" I learn my new name, and screw up the system.

Last time I was Mr Simpson which I really liked. Now, well I don't want to divulge my false identinty.

Last I checked, i had $250 in change.

When I bother to remember, I'll sell it to my boss for bills.

Last time I had this much, someone broke into my house and stole it all. Good Riddance.

BTW: The govt no longer puts copper in pennies. Copper is too expensive. Pennies have zinc instead.

Pennies have 2.5% copper (for the color), thank you very much

Let's just deflate the dollar instead... pull a Mexico and say that the NEW dollar is worth 10 of the OLD dollars. That'll fix it right up

Fewer millionaires, though. I say good riddance...

I don't know why you say that, Bauzer.

It's already weird though. I'm digging out the required coinage, keeping it in my pocket. It's working, and I have plenty of change to keep the plan in operation.
It's just that a pocket full of change is so cumbersome.
Try to get my keys (or lighter, because I keep them in separate pockets) out and change goes flying everywhere.
This plan that I received, ooooh, it's a good one.

Just mail the change to me.

Try buying looser pants.

ACK!

carry 4 pennies, 2 dimes, and a nickel. then you'll be atleast able to always get quarters or nothing back
well i think so. it's always worked for me.

I do something similar, but I carry quarters too, as I don't want those back either.

I like how Sloww is railing against all the Big Brother ****, sounds like a proper whiney Liberal...

Seems to me you're just causing your own problems because you refuse to use the solutions available to you, apart from B etor's obvious one - I can't believe you've never thought of that!

My addition to all this is keeping a wad of shrapnel in the car for the Severn Bridge toll so I can take ages handing over loads of coppers and other small change to the attendent as a protest that we have to pay in the first place...

[Richelieu]

Get used to change. It's here to stay.

[Colonâ„¢]

Dude, it's a fad like any other.

Nah, that is a libertarian type conservative thing. Liberals just coopted it recently to add yet another group under their umbrella, making even less coherent.

Once Bush is gone, they will drop such things.
