Other than dollars or pounds, what do you have more than 100 of?
I had this conversation today with a man who has over a hundred Hot Wheels cars. I have over a hundred bottles of nail polish. Do NOT include tildes in your answer.
lol If only we weren't siblings. I have the same story, or at least a similar one.
When I was little, the American Girls book series came out. Oh, how I loved them. Especially Samantha. Molly was ok too. My school library had all the books and had the porcelain dolls on display. I must have checked the Samantha book out a dozen times, and I'd just sit and stare at the dolls in the library. There were even matching clothes, so you could dress just like your doll. For years, I begged and pleaded for a Samantha doll. They were about $50 or $75 with the book back then. When begging didn't work, I offered to do odd jobs until I could earn enough to buy one. My mom finally "caved" and told me not to worry, that I'd be happy when the next Christmas rolled around. I couldn't contain my excitement. When Christmas arrived, I knew just what box my Samantha doll was in. The waiting was excruciating. I even picked up the box under the tree when nobody was looking and hugged it, dreaming of all the fun adventures Samantha and I would have. When the time came to unwrap it, I tore the paper off frantically (but gently), only to discover my doll was not Samantha. She wasn't even an American Girl doll. She was a cheaply-made doll dressed in the colors of Italy. I'm not Italian. I didn't even know any Italians. *Sigh*
This guy told me his wife doesn't like him telling people that he has them. But if he's a typical collector, you should re-consider your ban, he's a great family man.
Awesome! Good for you Baba! My Grammie always told us to save our pennies. They DO add up! I used to have a 5 gallon glass jug in our bedroom. When I tended bar and waited tables, I would throw my change into it at the end of the night. When Don and I decided to move to Florida, we emptied it and had 964 dollars! Save those pennies. You never know when you might need a vacation or want to move :)
How many did you kill in college? I've always wondered if I would be smarter if I didn't party so much. The funny thing is, I haven't wondered enough to feel regretful at all! I am VERY VERY sure you have many more than 100. I'm going to guess into the 10s of 1000s if not 100,000s. I'm serious! Care to spare of few?
