Coins

My buddy Paddy sent me this, thought I'd share:

I thought you might like this. You can get up to $500 ($250 increments) of the $1 president coins from the US Mint shipped free. The shipping disappears when you go to the final checkout screen. This is cool for a couple of reasons.

1) coins are cool and dollar bills are such a pain in the balls. So, circulate these things.

2) If you want to be a true cheapskates, you can buy these with a credit card and get whatever rewards, x%, skymiles, etc. I suppose you'd have to carry 10lbs of coins to the bank if you just wanted to deposit them, but hey. You could look at this as an immediate 2% (or whatever cc rewards you have) on a $500 investment.

3) who doesn't like Andrew Jackson?

All solid points. I'd also like to add a part 4 to this if you still aren't sold on coins. This is from the old Comedy Central show Upright Citizens Brigade:
