Heres an article I had passed along to me. It was published in a popular polish magazine. Its spans one full page and half of another. The title is "Save your Nickels" It goes on to say how Pennies and nickels are worth more melt than face, how its illegal, the possible fines, junk silver........Im not going to translate the whole thing but definitely an item of interest to this forum. The part on the pennies in quotes says "you can quickly become a millionaire!"

If it's a Polish paper, why do they use pictures of American coins? I'd let a few Archie Bunkerisms slip, but that wouldn't be nice.

Its a really popular magazine for polish people in america.I believe there is a different version in Poland so this one would be specific to america. I know there aren't so many in other areas, but in Chicago, there are a lot of Polish people!

Hey Jack,

I'm Polish too. My grandma was born in Warsaw.

Am I still qualified to laugh at, and relay polish jokes? It was OK when I was a kid in the 70's.

Western New York has a sizable Polish population. As far as I'm concerned, if you can spell and/or pronounce those last names, your plenty smart enough! :lol: About this part "you can quickly become a millionaire!" Did I miss something? I'm not sure it's that quick or easy...

I agree that time is limited to hoard. I just received my Ryedale and fear I might run out of time to get the return on my investment....so hoard and hoard more until the plug is pulled.

The end of hoarding is nigh at hand brothers. Behold, we have received a sign. Prepare yourselves for the next sign… the seven Ryedale of the Pennypocolypse.

Thogey walked in to a pizza place and ordered a pizza. The pizza man asked him, "Should I cut it into six pieces or eight?". Thogey answered, "Cut it into six; I couldn't eat eight."

My small engine man sold me a Stil chain saw. He said I could cut 4 cords a day with it.

The saw was a piece of s@!#. I could only get through 1 cord a day.

When I brought it back and complained it didn't meet standards, the guy pulled a string and it smoked, the chain started spinning around the edge and roared like a big sausage grinder. I asked " What's that noise?"
