Special thanks to “Jon Boy” from Atlanta, who said that he is sending us a four-year 10 Cent Challenge subscription payment ($36.50 x 4) in the form of $2 rolls of nickels. (73 rolls!) He certainly got his money’s worth by sending them in a $8.95 US Postal Service Flat Rate Box. (If the rolls had been sent at the normal “postage calculated by weight” Priority Mail rate, it probably would have cost more than $40 in postage!) For anyone thinking about doing likewise, be sure to do as Jon Boy did, and use plenty of padding and a second …
