pressed penny tube questions

[Deesknee]

Hi DiSigners, I am wondering what type of paper is best to use for the pressed penny M&M tubes. Just regular paper, or card stock?

And a little anyone know if it is still 50cents per pressed penny?

thanks

I would do regular paper and then cover the whole thing in clear masking tape so it doesn't run if it happens to get wet - and it's 50 cents plus the penny - so 51 cents total.

clear tape, that is brilliant. Now, I just have to find the M&M containers. For some reason I haven't been able to find them yet. 51cents still...has to be the cheapest souvenier anywhere.

There are also a few quarter machines. Total cost per pressed quarter is $1.25. No dimes or nickels anymore. They seem to be gone.
