thanks for the motivation. i finally dragged my "baseball money" that had collected in two quart size containers to the Coin Star at Albertsons. i selected the "Cash Now" option which charged 8.9%. after taking it's cut, the machine spit out a coupon for $149.47 and coins from Spain, Mexico and Canada. now i can pay off that bet that SacTown can't touch his nose with his tongue.

My final take: $33.20
