The Woes of a Far Sighted wife who is a cleanamaniac!

I am still laughing about this.

My wife sucked one of the knobs off the cased windows in a sunroom? we have. I was like...well when it's time to change the bag in the central Vac I will just cut it open and get it.

Well, today I changed the bag and fished out the knob. The bad side is I found 4 coins in it! No they were not rarities but were not coins you would throw away! The real shocker was there were 2 whole paper towels in there! Guess it's a good thing our Vac is stout. Couldn't imagine trying to unclog the pipes in the walls!

This is why my wife is now off limits from my office!

Is it possible that you dropped those coins on the floor?

Imagine all the vacuum bags you did NOT search..... So many missing coins.... Cheers, RickO

Be careful explaining about knobs getting sucked off.

Well that sucked, but glad you found them.

LOL! The funny part is 2 of the coins she snagged from me! 2 Nice Chinese Cash Coins she tied together with a string. She had to have them under the doormat...some kind of superstition or good vibes thing!

Fortunately we have a big unit. Been here 10 years and only the 2nd time I needed to change it!

Too many chances to get in trouble quoting the replies in this thread! Bye!

Bet she could find a way to get it to go down.

Funny story, I like it !!!

The actual ducting for the vac may have some surprises, especially heavier coins like Au, that did not make it to the bag but just sitting at a corner/turn.

I've used shop vacs, cleaned out and bagless, for sucking coin spills in my trunk.
