Money, Money and More Money

Hey y'all. After having a conversation with one of my coworkers today, I just realized how long ago that the loonie has been in circulation. He said he couldn't remember us Canadians ever having dollar bills or two dollar bills. Young Gaffers eh. Seems like a few years ago when it came out, but I was a kid then. I just checked and what I told him was right though, it did come out in '87 and the toonie in 96. Seems like longer. I still like have coins for currency. It just works so much better, like for car washs and vending machines. I alway's think back to whenever I been in the states and having to use the Coke machines and having bills that never seemed to work. Heck, change machines here never seem to accept bills half the time here either. And I still get a kick out of pulling out a pocket full of change and finding out that I have 15 dollars or something like that worth of change.
