We had to run a few errands after work today and stopped at a discount store that carries a complete hodgepodge of merchandise. You really never know what you will find there. After poking around a bit, Maymay found this cool retro robot change counter. You drop your change in and he says, "thanks for your savings". It didn't take much begging before I gave in and got it for her. She was very excited to get home and "feed" it all the change she could find. Within minutes of being home she had grabbed a jug that I have of pennies and started feeding the delightful little robot. Turns out that every single penny you drop into the robot will cause him to say "thanks for your savings". Every single penny. Every time.
It wasn't enough to feed the....delightful.....robot all our pennies, $3.84 worth, she then raided my purse and found EVEN more change to feed the ever hungry robot. Every single time the robot said, "thanks for your savings". Every single time. Just when I thought she was finally done, and all the change in the house had been fed to the robot, she jumped up off the couch and grabbed a screwdriver. She dismantled the robot, removed all the change, and reassembled it in a matter of minutes.
And then she began feeding every coin into the robot. Again.
