What A Deal!!
November 30, 2008, 11:58:27 AM
We just returned home from eastern Colorado where we visited relatives for Thanksgiving.

When I got home, I looked through the mail which had arrived, and I found this unbelievable deal which I wanted to share.

To start with, the envelope contained a "tamper proof" seal to make sure the right person received it.

To cut to the chase, for just $34.95 plus $4.95 postage, you can own "12 gleaming uncirculated U.S. President dollars."

We've all seen this baloney before, but I still find it hard to believe so many companies find the uneducated to be cash cows.  The uninformed sure take a hit, thinking they are buying into something reallly valuable.  It's really a shame.

I believe a Roll costs $25 only.   In India too, Tourists bring such Rolls and sell them.
25 coins are more than required 5 or so.
