A thread about money.

[-N-]

What is the biggest purchase you have ever made using only coins and change? For me, it was a $6 movie ticket three years ago. I felt kinda bad for the guy, but I mean, money is money, right? I only used quarters to make it better. Now I carry around change to pay the odd cents, but not a whole purchase...

OOC:	I don't think my last two [threads] were pointless either. It hurts.

I dunno I use coins A LOT. I live off my change.

[Demerwen Owns]

In Canada, there are 1$ and 2$ coins, which leads to many purchases being made with loonies and toonies. Personally I've purchased a 25 dollar quantity of a particular item using only quarters and the dude was flipping out exuberantly.

I very rarely spend my change. I usually accumulate a whole bunch of it in my pockets and then dump them in a pile at the end of the day. My change pile is getting pretty big, I should count it sometime.

I rarely use my change. I throw it in a pepsi bottle bank thinger at the end of each day. It's about 3 feet high, and the bottle is about 1/3 full.

I paid for an 8 dollar parking pass at the University of Alberta, all with change. The bastards are charging 10 dollars per day next year for parking. What else could they possibly do to exploit us poor students?

[Del Murder]

I bought a sandwich.

I payed for a set of groceries with pop bottle deposits. I need money, I'm selling stuff in my LJ if anyones interested (DC games, rare ones)

You'll regret selling those games in a few years from now.

In answer to the thread - no. I don't recall ever buying anything with small change. There's a machine at my local supermarket which takes my pennies and gives me pounds, so I never need to worry about using my small change.

I only did it when I was a little kid, when I couldn't get a hold of the green stuff too easily. I don't remember what I bought, but I know that it was about 12 dollars or so, all in quarters, nickles, and dimes. Yeah, I was a pain.

[Meat Puppet]

I brought a pair of shoes in silver change, as a joke of course. Joke was on my when I had proved my counting crappy, because the shirt cost 22.55 and I had about 21.40, and that was after scrounging.

[Shlup]

I honestly don't remember. I know I've paid with a small bucket of change before, but I couldn't tell you what or when.

Ashley paid for her McDonald's in quarters on our way ot Vegas last month though. It's cause her and Kim had like all their money in quarters. xD

[Baloki]

I paid for a £12 Mcdonalds meal in pennies and 2 pennies because the person serving me was pissing me off and being really patronising, also at sainsburys because they kept asking me for ID I paid for a £20 DVD in 5 pence pieces, mwhahahaha

[mr. anderson]

i bought this 5 dollar thing in pennies

[Cz]

I bought a £4 magazine in 5 and 10 pence pieces. That's it.
