Ready Change

There is one thing that I carry on my person whenever I leave the apartment and when I use it, I always get complimented on it. I use it a lot, so, a lot of compliments.

My dad gave it to me years ago while I had been living with him and my step-mom for a couple years after high school. I remember when he did, we were at a job site and he had it with the rest of his change in his door handle. Nothing special about the event, he thought I'd like to have it, so he gave it to me. I don't remember if he ever told me where he got it from. Internet searched have come up empty for another one, or anything about its manufacturer.

I'd venture to say that most people don't have a designated place for their change and for those that do, probably don't have a super easy way to retrieve an exact amount. With Ready Change, you can.

I have a lot of mixed feelings about my dad, but the one thing that I think of when I receive those compliments is how resourceful he was. As a remodeler/roofer/handyman he was always able to perform the task with what he had. About a month ago, my brother and I went through his work truck to clean it out to sell. My word, that man had a lot of tools, both store bought and Macgyvered. But he got the job done with what he had.
