2 pennies rescued from behind the chest of drwaers in the spare bedroom when I was cleaning, not a fortune but they're among friends now0

Blimmin' pennies are being very elusive for me at the moment.

Captured 198 pennies in Sainsbugs filling station this morning! I reckon they'd all got together for a penny concealment convention, but I found them, hehe0

Wow, Sparrer! That's some good going! :rotfl: on the convention though, I wonder if they hold any regional meetings around here?
Mr Merle presented me with 30 pennies this morning, heroically rescued from pockets before being surely drowned in the washing machine. They're now safely housed in my fat cat piggy bank, and have been added to my kitty fund total (all prisoners are going to sacrifice themselves to my desire of owning a pet cat) x

Hi everyone
Found 5p on the walk to work yesterday and got 245 pennies into my Paypal account the other day from one of my cashback sites but haven't been around to post for a day or two. All safely tucked away now.Every penny's a prisoner

Lying on the floor at Pilates class last night and I could see 20c (cos I'm in Rep Ireland and it's all yoyo's and cents here) hiding up against the skirting board! All I could could think was "every penny's a prisoner" but wasn't near enough to capture them!! Next week I'll be putting my mat within grabbing distance and it's mine!!0
