To the original post, Gary commented:
I have an envelope with a penny taped to a letter set to go out this morning, and know one other person who’s expressed the intention of doing the same.
I hope they get a couple of hundred pennies and one-cent checks in the mail. The address is City Collector, 77 Park Street, P.O. Box 4127, Attleboro MA 02703.
Wow! If only I had thought about that! But now that the idea is out, I will have to join in the fun of sending a penny to this impoverished town.
Where else can you have so much fun for a penny?
NOTE: Please put Eileen Wilbur’s name on it so that she will get the credit for a future bill. For privacy reasons, I have removed her address and account number from the photo, but the city should know who she is without it. I would hate to see the city just pocket the pennies.
Did I mention that Eileen is blind?
