i hate cold weather

I got a cup of hot tea at the deli at work today (cause it's freezing cold in the mornings! *sob* ) and got a Canadian nickel back as part of my change. Just a few months ago, the same thing happened with a Canadian penny. And while getting foreign coins as part of your change isn't that unusual, I suppose...after all TX is a bordering state, right? Why is it, then, that the only non-american change I've ever gotten is Canadian?!?

You'd think I'd get centavos, or something. O.o

Heh. That's tre-nifty, indeed. :nod:

On the other hand, I don't really know what to do with the coins I've got. I suppose I could start a collection, but...eh. I've got too much junk cluttering up my room as it is. Thankee, tho! n_n

On a similar note...do you want to start a collection? I think I still know where that canadian penny is..
