Just like the title, I was walking by in Shaw's and I wasn't even paying any attention till this little guy peeking at me from the top of the coinstar machine, along with a couple of Mexican dollars and Canadian coins... nice little find I'll have to say.

Nothing wrong with that score!

Another good source is a toll booth. I find goodies there occasionally.
