I've thought about doing this but never really gave it a shot. What would you say is your ratio of not finding any coins to buy to finding people willing to sell coins for a decent price? Just wondering what the odds are of finding anything cool.

Great finds!

Terrible odds of finding anything nice. Around here, Thursdays are the big starting day for yard and estate sales. When they advertise coins, I run the other way. That brings out all the dealers. What I mostly find are jars of pennies. I like to find those big plastic water jugs full of pennies, those can be rewarding. By branching out into the neighboring countryside, I hit the sales and work the banks over too. Jim

For those of you wondering about the Krispy Kreme buffet, I used some poetic license to add some punch to my post. I am still on the quest for the perfect donut.

Don't get caught! It's only legal in the privacy of your own home, not your neighbors..lesson learned!

Nice to see you made her happy...

coolpix, I'll see you in hell! $5 for a new Zebra putter, why didn't you just rob her at gunpoint?

 

[cunextuesday]

5 bucks a piece? I would have offered her 10 bucks for all of them! Nice score none the less!

For those saying to offer a fair price... Silliness. Your goal should be to buy something for as cheap as possible. Not to subsidize her lifetime of ignorance.
