I can't find the drawer I thought I had. I found most of the other parts
to the cash register -- but not the drawer. I'll let you know if I happen
to find it, but I think I probably tossed it.

This is not a sales pitch, I promise.
My daughter is going to be selling PCB earrings at the upcoming ECCC/VCFMW
show, as she did last year. This year, she's asked how much a cash
register would cost, so she could look "professional" (she's 9, it's
cute,
I know).
So, I thought: I have a tiny CBM-compatible 2.5" printer sitting here
doing nothing, a C64 or VIC is easy to pull off the shelf, wiring up a
small LCD is no issue, and I have cartridge stock to make an autorun cart.
But, I am lacking a cash drawer. I've looked online, but I'd rather not
spend $50-100 on something that has marginal utility...
Thus, I'm wondering if someone on list has an old beat up drawer (with a
spring and solenoid) they'd be interested in offloading inexpensively or
donating...
