Mr Pink, And here I think I'm the only looking for money when I walk. I walk a lot, generally from a low of 7-8 miles a day to as much as 15 miles. I also run and bike, but those are more warm weather. I always look for change. I don't find as much as you do, mostly a few cents each time but other times a dollar or five. Just the past 2 months I found a $5, 2-$1, .27, .13, .37 but mostly all I get is a cent or 2. I live in a suburban town and we generally have only families live here so I don't find a lot but it's pretty rare that I don't find some money. I put it all in the kids college fund. Here is what I found a few weeks ago walking the dog.  |

hfjacinto- yep. exactly that. i found $1.23 tonight, this was the big score:  a sixty-two cent coin dump in the middle of a big parking lot, just like I mentioned in my reply to jbuck on the previous page. it's warm year-round here, so I get my biking & walking done primarily at night. I get five miles a night minimum, sometimes as much as ten, maybe. I can go out comfortably each night and really only have to worry about rain. rain wrecks searching for money & complicates finding my kitties. |

no, jbuck, I am confined to kw, lol. Glad I did not miss out on a chance to say hello. Next time I am down that way I will let you know. We were only in KW for one day, rest of the time was in Marathon. I hope you have continued success in 2020!  |

thanks, jbuck. I'm sure it'll be at least as intriguing as 2019. it's a box of chocolates every night, I never know what I'm gonna get.

Just in the last 2 days I found .11 (2 nickels and a LMC), and today was .28. The LMC are pretty road rashed and you can tell by the how white they are zincolns.  |

a good deal of the Lincoln cents I find are roadrashed & nasty. i got lucky again last night... I stopped pedaling and parked my bike in this plaza corner. when it's wind out of the northwest-north-northeast, this corner collects leaves & trash that blows in. I know to check this area because I've found $5 here on two different occasions, both times during the right wind conditions.  i made one pass and stopped because I saw something.  most ppl would easily miss it, and apparently did.  |

I was in a doctors office in a large hospital last week. I looked down and there was a Susan B Anthony dollar laying on the carpet. |

Another .28 cents today !! No pictures I dumped into the coins I roll and deposit once a month. One thing I noticed is that there is a lot of trash when I look down.

another wind-deposited dollar bill in the bush last night:  I've been pretty lucky over the past several weeks, stray dollars seeming to be somewhat abundant lately. |

The wind is relentless.  "It is not that the wind is blwing, it is what the wind is blowing..." ~ Ron White  In your case... dollar bills!  |

a couple hours before I discovered the W quarter in my pocket last night, I captured a dollar in the wild:   |
