Pennies for Debra

I was talking to a friend at work who told me she throws away Pennies. In fact, up until not that long ago, she threw away nickles too!

I told her she should stop throwing the pennies away and just give them to me instead. So she gave me three that she had in her desk.

Then I decided to make a sign on my desk that says “Pennies for Debra – Now Accepting Contributions”

I also tweeted about it.

A short time later, another coworker came over, read the sign, left, returned with a gigantic handful of pennies.

My ultimate plan is to put them toward some bills I owe on.

So I amended my sign to say “Pennies for Debra(‘s College Loan) Now Accepting Contributions”
