LOL, Kady, maybe she's like my aunt. That woman has money hidden all over her house, $20 in a book on the shelf, $6 in a shoe in the closet, $12 in a coffee can....all over. We even have instructions that if we have to call the paramedics for her to check her bra! These days we've managed to convince her to keep it under $100 and the rest in the bank but a few years ago we had to search her entire house looking for stashes because by then she had no idea where most of it was and by the time we were done we'd found thousands.

It was a thing in the country in Ireland when my mother was growing up. Her father always gave her a penny. She always gives my son a buck the first monday of the new year. I got one this year so I keep it as my good luck buck

RE: grocery carts Yup, you put a dollar in cart (Superstore) to use it and when you return it, your looney pops back out (Safeway is a quarter but I have a token for that)

I left for work with $6 in my pocket, came home with $6 in my pocket. Man, am I thrifty!! About the grocery carts -- they're a quarter here, and you get it back when you're done. (They're all chained together, one quarter unlocks the buggy from the chain attached to the next in the row, and replugging the chain in pops the quarter back out -- the buggies need to be stacked one-inside-another for the chain to reach.) I always laugh though, cause they installed the coin-thing as a means to prevent the homeless from stealing them... yet you still see every bum in the city with one. I chuckle to myself at the thought of a homeless guy standing in the parking lot at Safeway, "Dude, can you believe they're selling these things for twenty-five cents?? Score!!"

PAMY!! How wonderful that you are carrying on the Poker tradition! Way back in the dark ages (we left there in 1980) we worked in that basement and a group of us played Poker or Yahtzee.. we used candy as chips but then we'd settle up later. One day one of our Analysts came by .. Crazy Dutchman .. and he snatched up a carmel .. we were sputtering "that's a DOLLAR!" LOL .. he just complained about how stale it was.
