I, too do the gold-colored $1 coin thing. These came out in 2000, but Uncle Sam keeps making $1 bills (notes) so the coins are cute novelties, not functional money like Canadian loonies.

I have a friend who gets 50 brand new 1.00 bills, takes them to a printer and has them padded with glue at top. Peels off 1 or 2 as needed.

My gripe is with room service. gratituity, service charge and more added.

Also, I HATE it when a restaruant adds a tip. I might have given more (and I tell the waiter that he was screwed by his bosses for telling me what to give) or if service is bad---it is hard to get them to take off.
