Wow. Those sound quite valuable now if they're in good condition. I see. I actually did decide to look at my piggy bank of coins to extract the quarters for laundry and found some familiar coins. I found a copper-coated nickel I made for a science project and a penny with cuts in it for that science project. Ah yes, I did hear about those new quarters. They'll be interesting to collect, though for me it'll just end up in the laundry machine.
Ah, I see. I remember when I was in college I took the bus to go to the grocery store and brought my own hand-truck with a large bag on it to carry it all the way back home. That would make sense, there's probably communities of smaller markets, or maybe the farmers market that happens on weekends.
I think they might be double the original value, or something. Perhaps eventually I'll bother selling.
My favorite trick was dunking old pennies in vinegar to get crud off them. The only problem was it would take some of the original coating off the penny as well. I just got back from spring break seeing family and a friend from high school, I was able to rummage through their coins (they pay cash a lot for some reason ) and found a bunch of coins for the collection, including one of those new American Women quarters I was just telling you about. I think I'll use one of the extremely small plastic bags bricklink sellers seem to love using to stick it in for now
That's quite the adventure. Earlier I had to haul my bag with goodies from my parents' / grandparents' on the train and the bus back to my apartment. I'm glad I decided to not work out yesterday, because I definitely got one today. I need to go to the farmers market near me more often, especially now that local produce will be coming into season again.
As the news says, LEGO is a better investment than gold so those set's value are something to keep an eye on.
I should give that a try to see if my coins can be a little cleaner. Ooh, that will be a fine addition to your coin collection. Good use of those bags you have thousands of.
Yep, it probably took a good half of a day to get groceries. That's a lot of hauling with a lot of commutes as well. That'll be pretty cool. I used to visit the farmers market back in college, but now I need to find one closer to me.
Hehe, thanks. I recently got more mosquito bites, so I'll be doing that again.
I think I may have been in a dark room for film once or twice before on some special occasion, though I don't quite remember. Indeed. I think where I am is finally getting some stable weather.
I prefer the gummy candies, hard candies like life-savers, and some chocolates.
Thanks. Happy St. Patrick's day to you too.
My condolences once again, that sounds quite painful
Nice. Stable weather is good. Here it keeps fluctuating between 60 degrees and snow storms
Cool. Do you prefer gummy bears or gummy worms?
I got a little used to it, but I do need to be careful of how I treat it, especially when it comes to choosing what to wear so it won't rub on the bite.
Yep. I seem to be getting some of that weather here, well it'll just be rain, but it did come out of no where.
Both are great so it's hard to choose. Gummy worms last longer as a treat, but gummy bears are more affordable.
