Went to Lowes near me and couldn't believe the sign


Jun 22, 2020, 4:26 PM

It ask that you pay with exact change or other means, like a bank card as the United States was experiencing a COIN SHORTAGE. What is the next thing someone is going to come up with? Maybe the air we breathe want be there. Who knows.

I have a quart jar full of quarters at home

If the banks are desperate enough for change they should offer me at least 30 cents each for them.

This is funny since I was turned away and not allowed to buy my meal with all pennies one time.

Should we just get rid of the penny?

I've been hoping for many years that the government would issue a 9/10 of a cent coin so we could pay our gasoline bill in exact change.

I blame myself


Jun 22, 2020, 5:00 PM

I have 9 Abbott’s farm apple cider jars filled with coins. Once I reach 10, the family will be heading to the bank to load up their coin counting machine. We’re about 1/4 of the way to filling the 10th. Normally it would take about 6 months to fill up a jar. Don’t know now with the shortage

Re: I blame myself


Jun 22, 2020, 5:02 PM

That will be interesting to see how much you get. What's your guess?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

A full jar can be $250-$300


Jun 22, 2020, 6:59 PM

Just depends on how many quarters are in there

With inflation just around the corner


Jun 22, 2020, 5:20 PM

I'm holding onto all my coins, as the metal they are made of will be worth more than the actual coin.

Re: With inflation just around the corner


Jun 22, 2020, 5:41 PM

Hey Oculicious,

I've been saving up pennies, nickels and dimes for almost a decade. If the metals do eventually become more valuable than the coin, where would one sell them?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Well, as it is illegal to destroy currency


Jun 22, 2020, 5:52 PM

You'll want to befriend someone at a scrap metal facility who can melt it down "off the books".

If it's illegal to destroy currency, we should lock up every politician in this country. :)

I don't think it's a coin shortage. I've read that some


Jun 22, 2020, 5:30 PM

retailers don't want to give back change in fear that the Covid germ might be on the change.

If everyone would unload their coin jars at home and pay for their Chickfila and Starbucks in coins problem would be solved quickly

My wife took $126.00 of change to the bank today. Ok I've done my part. Of course I still have a glass gallon jug filled with pennies. I'll get to that some day.
I know... I've heard it before... I am part of the problem.

Not really a shortage


Jun 22, 2020, 8:27 PM

it is a by-product of contactless transactions over the last 3 months, so coins have not been circulating quite like they normally do in the past 3 months.

They could make everything round up or down to the nearest dollar on the final bill if there is a surplus (above 50 cents), it goes into the SS fund.
