I went to three stores. None of them had it and no one was willing to open any registers. The Safeway folks were the rudest...
Post Offices dont have stamp machines anymore...I read they stopped using them in 2010 and those APC's only use credit/debit cards.
Oh well. I left him a dollar bill this time and a note.
Thanks anyway.

I think they're more or less out of circulation other than the ones people actually have and use. I wish they'd take pennies out of commission. I don't know why they thought dollar coins were a good idea...who wants to walk around with a bunch of heavy coins clinking around in their pocket or purse? I mean seriously.

Sneaky thought - Do you know where your son keeps his other ones? Take one out and give it back to him and run to the bank in the morning to replace it.
