Plus ça change

Nearly 1100 quarters, over 1200 dimes, about 700 nickels, and more than 1600 pennies. It weighs about 40 pounds, it comes to $446.73, and it's what I hauled to Commerce Bank this morning, where you can cash in your coins without a fee at the Penny Arcade machine. And that's not all of it—Laura hauled in $300 and change on Saturday.

Thank God there was no transit strike this morning.
