They were 2.5k each.

Two more comming tomorrow. :-:

I spent a few hours spreading cheer throughout Chase branches in the area :rolleyes:

Ok, going to log back into Snapfish and continue my love/hate relationship. Love the fact one can create custom albums, hate the usability aspect - one can clearly see where they cut the budget. Too bad all my friends uploaded their photos there or I would be long gone.

I had him drop them off in the garage. I felt bad and did not want him dragging them all up the stairs to the patio. He will get a DD gift card by Christmas.

That's good of you. Whenever I see my UPS guy, I always offer him a bottled water. He/she seems very appreciative (I don't do this just on $ days, I do this on all days I see them; I have good UPS guys/ladies and giving them a cold $.20 bottle of water is a small gesture when they lug stuff inside and put my boxes wherever I want instead of outside which is all they're required to do).

I have earned just about enough starpoints to stay there for free in march :cool:

It took me two hours to clean up the mess that 12 full boxes of coins leaves behind. Right now, my safe is filled to maximum capacity. I am just glad that I was able to spread the rest of the coins amongst the Chase branches without too much hassle today. I will never have 6 orders with the mint at one time again. I swear. :-:


ETA: :rolleyes:

It does becoming a bit addicting though ;)

I'm really done . . . I think.

Plus1 and I have been going back and forth over EAR schedules. EAR does NOT go to MCI. GRI used to years ago. EAR used to go to GRI which is what Plus1 is remembering. He hasn't flown to EAR for at least 8 years so his memory isn't exactly crystal clear :p And of course I am right.

If I can ask: How many are you averaging if you had 14 boxes come in 2 days? I have been doing ~10-12k/week and thought that was too much, considering how many times I stop at banks, transfer funds and pay the cards off, etc.

I think I can manage 3-4 boxes a week. today was just a horrible miscalculation by me. I never thought the mint would catch up on all their orders.
