I was getting angry because my washing machine was leaving the clothes so wet after the final spin cycle...especially jeans and towels.
Did a little YouTube search and found a cleaning drawer to be inspected and cleaned as part of the maintenance
Washer is over 10yrs old...have no idea how long they've been there?
Works like new now!
Funny the Wheat cent was right on top...
Check your pockets before you wash your clothes

I love it! I had a similar experience nearly 20 years ago. Pulled a dozen+ coins out of the washer trap.

Nope sorry we are not prudes. We prefer keeping CCF family-friendly.You can find all the filthy words you want elsewhere on the interwebs.

That little drawer that you found in the washer kinda reminds me of the coinstar reject tray.

Well...I stand corrected...my apologizes...
All I "originally" said was...I was po'd about my washing machine.
Not you...not anyone (politically correct)
Just my feelings...how I felt about a machine not doing it's job and what it left me to discover...

We have given out literally many thousands of cards to kids at shows and assured their parents that this is a safe place. We've given away literally thousands of coins to the same kids.
