          Well, I wasn't going to post this but since nobody really knows me here, I am going to :mrgreen: I went to the bank the other day to get me some pennies. I got 2 boxes and when I got home I noticed that they were all new unc 2008 pennies. :x . I kept one roll cause they were unc and dumped the rest at one of my banks. They were still in the box. A couple days later, I went to go get some pennies. Since half the time I don't pay attention to what I am doing, I went to the bank That I had dumped the boxes of pennies before hand. I asked for one box...that's right I got the box that I had dumped a couple of days before...Hey, It's a rookie mistake....Is this going count against my % :oops:
