"EAT YOUR PENNIES"

Did anyone see this ad/skit the other night on Jimmy Kimmel...it had two children (maybe 8 yr olds) in Halloween costumes, an elderly woman sitting at a table with a bowl of brown pennies in front of her. The kids were holding her hostage with squirt guns telling her to eat her pennies...and the woman said she would not eat the pennies...this went back and forth a few times, then the children said she should have given out candy instead of the pennies for Halloween...then squirted her. If they only had parents that were members here at Real Cent they would be in the know. :mrgreen:

If only I had all of those pennies that I collected as a kid for UNICEF. I would have put them to use and I am pretty sure the UN squandered them.

So that's how you get rid of zincs!

Just kidding, but a good idea as a Halloween gift. Give the kids something that won't make them hyper/toothless. I give my neices/nephews a brick of pennies for christmas.
