I bought the white ball flag because I needed a flag and since so many in my association tape their flags, I figured "Why not?" I don't particularly care for it though because it shows dirt quicker. Don't worry, I'll be buying a yellow one this year.

You must have some friendly banks in your area. Every bank here would look at your sack of coins and say "That's nice, you need to roll these first."
