Yes, Mrs Dangerous here, used to collect stamps. LOL

Has this hobby completely died?

All my friends did it, we would swap stamps. I could spend hours looking through my little collection, admiring each of my favourites and considering which of my favourites was my:

^{ULTIMATE FAVOURITE.}

Caution, I am feral.

lol hmm.. I think my mom collected stamps a little bit. I don't know if she ever traded any, but more like she would buy ones that were limited editions and keep them.

I haven't collected stamps, but I did collect US state quarters before. They started to release quarters for each state.. and you had to collect them all lol I think they are coming out with new ones now.. and I don't remember if I even finished the first set =p

I completed a set of quarters, like in middle school.

then they cam out with different ones.

Peace!

I collected pencils and stickers.. and chinese fans =p I like random doodads. You know, souvenirs from different places. My grandparents used to travel to different countries, and they would bring me back something. I loved it!

I have money (not much) from:

Israel
China
Canada
Russia
France (Francs, not Euros)

Most of it is from my older sister's husband bc he has been there for work

But my dad has been to Israel

I have saved it all, but gave some away to friends

I also have some old, but fake confederate dollars and stuff
from Atlanta when I was there once.

Peace!
