    I wonder what parts of the country all this started in.

    Must be popular because the link to the map in Tprings LINK above says- "This map has been temporarily disabled due to excessive use. "

    EDIT: I should have added that it is everywhere at once. Not a particular area of the country first.

    Unfortunate about the map link -- It worked fine last night.


    It showed little bubble points around the country where various dealers described [approximate] areas where they left coins. For the point closest to me, the person described leaving 'Easter Eggs' on a public trail.

    Really... dang... so kids are gonna find these eggs and go spend the money on toys and candy LOL! Adults are just going to think they are Easter Eggs that the kids didn't find and go spend the money somewhere... at least the money is getting into circulation but the chances of any of us finding it is pretty slim.

    The closest place to me is actually where I'll be Saturday.

    Thanks T, cool link!! 90 miles in two different directions from me. Northern VA is loaded with them though.


    I noticed they are promoting it well though, it was on the Today Show yesterday morning.
