tonight I picked $1.21 in well-scattered change. joy. last night I found exactly... zero. so the $1.21 tonight was very welcome.

a totally unrelated score:

i tend to a patio garden at a condo complex not far from where I live. I used to live at that complex back in 2018, for about 7 months. I know several people who live there, including the office people. I noticed recently that the office did one of it's bi-annual bike rack clean-outs. I went to them to thank them for the clean-out, it makes for easier parking for me when I show up to do work there. one of those people offered me my choice of any bike from that clean-out. so I scored myself a Trek road bike!

i was on my way out of the winn-dixie parking lot tonight when I made a big score. I could hardly believe my eyes, but there it was on the pavement in front of me. I had to step up to it, nab a picture and then get my hand on it because I wasn't sure that it was real:

I was thinking "small feet" as well

However... that could be a $15.00 score according to ebay sold listings

(Looks like it's made of paper though)

last night I picked a well-scattered $1.06. the night before last night I picked ninety-nine cents, couldn't locate another coin to save my life.

I'm looking to prep the cauldron this weekend. hopefully cycle 18 will be coming to a close very soon. depends on a few things lining up nicely for me.

yah, me too.. in fact I'm champing at the bit now... there's a coin in one of my shopping carts that was just discounted by $15, so I'm having to hold my breath, but I doubt i'll be ready to nab it before the discount passes.

doesn't matter. I have numerous options.

...so, tonight was hot dog night and I was on the back end of the route, all kitties fed, heading back in the general direction of downtown, riding through the winn-dixie parking lot at about 12:30am, when I spotted what looked like a folded wad of $10...





...and it was!

that was a nice boost for the pot.

vigilance & patience! $10.77 on the night.
