Have some fun: Tip the pizza guy with Sac dollars

wingedliberty

Have some fun tonight, if you order pizza, tip the delivery guy with Sacs.

Sacks of what?

wingedliberty

Sacagawea dollars.
I tipped the pizza guy with two of them, he looked like a deer in headlights, but was thankful
after a few seconds. I think he thought I was nuts or ran of out money and fealt guilty, so I had
to tip him in gold.

You know, this is a great idea and, fortunately, I just got this monster SAC in that I won on eBay.

Russ:
Too bad the 0.99 in shipping exceeded the face value. I go through alot of rolls
and send them in. Most come back PCGS/NGC MS66-68. The spotted and nicked leftovers
are used for Pizza Hut and Dennys. Its worth it just for the look on their faces.

He sent me a stuffed puppy dog with the coin.

Do that all the time. Problem is(as I just quit a pizza shop) the driver takes the coins back to the shop. Trades them for paper. At end of shift, the manager counts them. Tomorrow they are off to the back. Out of circulation. Atleast that was what I saw for the last year. JFK's too. I took the JFK's ofcourse, search the sacs for the "wounded eagle."
BTW I found a page on "fun ways to order pizza some time ago. Some are cleaver, some are lame. PAGE

If you really want to freak them out....... tip them with slabbed coins!

Warning..... just don't tip the "dancers" at a Gentlemans Club with Sac Dollars, the Bouncers don't think if very funny. Nobody has a sense of humor anymore!

If one is at a Gentleman's club, one should always tip with SBA dollars.

Been there, did that. Just yesterday. Not a pizza guy, but a pal-one of the stewards at work, who frequently helps out and does some of my closing duties for me. He's from Mexico and not too long in this country, so he'd never seen or heard of them. He really liked 'em. In the past I had given him some other coins, including older Mexican silver. This time I explained to him that the coins were legal tender and he could spend 'em, but he said he was gonna keep 'em. I could tell he was thrilled. He showed 'em around to some of his coworkers, and they agreed that the design was beautiful. I had to explain who Sacagawea was, and who Lewis and Clark were.

You did a great thing, I am sure he appreciates it.

A few months ago, my husband and I were at a restaurant and my husband left the waitress' tip in SAC's. She kept looking at them and asked us what they were. When we told her, she said "thanks" and walked to the back of the restaurant. We surmised she was asking her boss if they were real.

wingedliberty

Its funny that you mention that, I had them ask me point blank if they were real?
I guess the mint won't learn, that dollar notes and dollar coins cannot co-circulate! Only one victor!!!

I totally agree, wingedliberty. I'd prefer $1 coins myself, but ones that look better than the SAC's do when circulated, and a different design.
