Going to attempt to buy exhaust from change....

Pocket Change... The most useless money there is. It never gets spent, usually it finds its way into the couch or under your car seat where you can't reach it. Or maybe it makes it onto your dresser at home, never to be used again.
I have found a use. I'm going to attempt to gather enough loose change to buy the DC TCS exhaust I'm planning on buying. The original plan was to buy it next May, when I got out of school, and I'm sticking to that, so I'm giving my self until May 27, 2003 to come up with as much spare change as I can. I'm not going to go out of my way to get it, but I usually get a lot of it. I can come home some days with upwards of $3.00 in change, so it adds up, but can I come up with $500+ in change? Wish me luck....

I saved my change for almost three years, and cashed it in about a month ago....1,231.47!!! It took three years but it was a nice surprise. I paid off a credit card with it. I had 7 one gallon jugs full of change, each one weighed like 60lbs.

I am doing the same thing, although I do not have a dead line as I am working my way through school. I sometime need a Mt. Dew to stay awake in my morning classes so I spend my change there.

A helpful hint : A plastic soda 2-liter bottle full of pennys is about $30 bucks, and the same bottle holding mixed silver coins ( 5, 10 and 25 cent pieces) will be about $250 depending on the ratios. I saved that way and purchased my Automag paintball marker.

Good luck!!

I've just been collecting quarters for almost 2 months now, and I've got right at $50. Dunno what I'm gonna spend it on when My canister is full. (should have around 200 bucks)
