I haven't read all of the guesses.

But... since you're giving out 2% instead of some other random amount, I'm going to guess that 2% comes out to somewhere around $10.

Uhm, someone's probably already guessed $500, so I'll guess $536.65.

ship it!

You are lucky winner.

dtbog wins $10.67

The exact total was $533.33


What is scary is that the first reply to this thread was by thinman and he guessed $534 which was only 66 cents off. But then he went back and edited it for some reason.

Always go with your gut.

[/ QUOTE ] He said 1,134.00.

I know, but I said he edited it. For some reason it doesn't have the edited by stuff. But I know it said 534 at first because I remember my shock upon seeing it.

Is there a way to get rid of the "edited by" stuff in italics when editing that I don't know about?

[/ QUOTE ]

I definately edited it.

That's probably all quarters. I did 14 pounds of each and came up with about $800

Also, for any of you interested in calling every Meijer is southeastern Michigan, to try and get lucky, unfortunately, they have rules about disclosing such information and are generally unhelpful.
