This thread idea came from another member that I was having a conversation with.

I told him I knew he was serious about pennies because while I am using a cart, he is using a forklift.

List the tell tale signs of being serious!

Having a Ryedale says you are serious.

Having MORE than one Ryedale says you are even more serious.

Having 4 or more Ryedales says you have a problem. :D

As a tenant is giving you keys back to your rental you have to refrain yourself from picking up that cent that "may be copper".

When anytime you receive a package in the mail,
Your kids yell "Dad the new pennies are here."

when your mailman asks when you're expecting another package.
I think he tries to schedule a day off.

Hey, I resemble that comment. :mrgreen:

Daviscfad, I think we might have talked about silver. :roll:

When the banks are calling you when they have pennies to get rid of. :D

The tellers at the pick-up bank know you are there to get the bags ( all of them) :mrgreen:

When you are putting load adjusting shocks on your penny hauling vehicle. :o

Wondering if the 500lb limit on your cart is REALLY its limit. :o

when you have dreams about sorting pennies.
when you have a weekly standing order at your bank.
when they know you by name.
when you have stacks of broken down string boxes and large bags of opened paper rolls.
when the people at the post office say, "more pennies, huh?".

You meet a girl named Penny and think about marrying her just because you hoard all the other pennies you come across that are Pre 1982.
