Lol.
Hi guys, ever go to the grocery store when you haven't eaten yet? Then you find out you put extra food in your cart that you really didn't attend to, when you walked in the store. lol
Well, I feel the same way, when I walk into my LCS.
So hungry! I can just buy EVERYTHING!
Knowing and deciding what, is the hard part. I rarely walk out of the shop without purchasing something.
But when I do, I feel I had the will power not to buy on my emotions rather than common sense.
Right now, I'm really trying to decide whether it will be another Capped Bust Half, Morgan or another Toned Silver Eagle for my Dansco album?
Do you guys have similar shopping issues?
Thanks

That's why I'm not allowed into the LCS.
Agree, but the only solution to the LCS problem is to have no money.

I rarely go in my local LCS. When I do, I just buy stuff I don't need and the coins I'm still hunting for my core collection have almost a zero chance of being there. Actually, they have an almost a zero chance of being anywhere, but there are occasional exceptions.
Yes, my LCS usually has the same inventory when I visit. However, she gets petty good traffic and periodically, something new steps in the shop.
Esp. to my liking.

That's the only reason I DO go -

Lol.
Yeah, when I do go grocery shopping hungry, my eyes are bigger than my stomach!
Then, when I go to my LCS, my eyes are bigger than my wallet!
Thanks

How 'bout online, RickO?
I know some can be suspicious.
Amazon, can be trusted, but a bit pricey.

--- If it should happen I die and leave this world and you want to remember me. Please only remember my opening Sig Line.@joeykoins.... I have made some online purchases, but that is, by nature, one at a time. So tends to be limited to a special coin that I see. Plus, I do not go online specifically searching for coins - well, almost never. Cheers, RickO
@joeykoins So I should go grocery shopping when I'm full, and coin shopping when I'm broke ... that way I buy less?
hmmmm ... interesting concept.

Yes! Or just carry limlted cash when you walk in the shop. I think they call this a "budget" ?
In which, I don't do!

Dude, now you're making me hungry.
I didn't even have my breakfast.
By the way, great deal!
The Reuben's are my favorite!

It’s pretty darn rare that I find anything for my collection at my local BMs. That said, I was able to buy a colorfully toned PCGS MS63 1909 quarter a few years ago.
I like to support the local stores though, so if nothing interests me I’ll usually leave with a handful of 90% U.S. junk silver.
