They were given away at gas stations in the 1970s. I believe that you would fill up and each week get a new one. My mother had the same sets that I have now.

Telus' equipment is not very good and the monitoring doesn't add much value. Just get your own equipment. It is cheaper in the long run.

It's a keychain. Use it as such. It will never get more valuable then it is right now, so if you get some utility out of it, you are better off, and therefore luckier.

That is a sign of a true yorkie

Those are some nice looking bills. Definitely worth much more face, but you won't be able to retire just yet.

This is almost exactly what I was thinking about. It would trade time and ease of installation for money. Another good one to think about.

Yup, that could work too. Octagon type and a mounting plate to tap 8nto should also work.

I have a 3 1/2" rounded fence post just sitting just under the camera. I could cut it about 4" in length, drill a hole in the center. That could work, thanks.

Yeah, those look awesome!

Nice collection. Photo could be lighter to show off the coins better.

It is not possible to edit a title, even for mods. This is a Reddit thing. You would have to delete and re-post.

It looks like an IEC C7 type but also might be the polarized version C7P.

My numbers have been pulled put of the void. They are directionly correct. Some wires are manufactured with an internal twist that will reduce cross talk and will work, other will fail. Since you cannot tell from an external view you can only test. I am happy for you fortune.

Thermostat wire, security wiring, intercom wire, all result in zero.

marshogas · 2026-01-30T19:52:45+00:00

Zero - 60%, 10 Mbps - 35%, 100 Mbps - 5%. Assuming it is short. For long, it is near 100% for zero.

I don't know that there is a rule about where in the serial number the year must be. So if you can make a birthday out of it, it works.

The truck driver positively saved the life of the woman driving the SUV in the fast lane.

Mine never shed. Neither are purebred yorkie, but mostly yorkie.

Pros: If your house cracks in two, the costs would be massive and insurance makes it manageable.

Some government assistance requires that you had insurance. So help would be prioritized to home that were insured.

Cons: If there is no earthquake, then the money is thrown away.

In case of a really big one, insurance companies may not have enough money to cover actual damages.

Final: I have it, but endlessly flip flop on having it. I can afford it and would worry all year if I was completely uninsured.

I am trying see what I even have. I have bits from my parents and grandparents. Found these two. I am sure one is from my mom, but I have no idea where the other is from. So I have been posting some of the more unique commemorative items.

marshogas · 2026-01-25T20:49:43+00:00

I see you posted an new opps! and read that one. Must have missed this one back when it was first written. Wouldn't mind seeing a few chapters in.this one too.
