    13p total finds yesterday. Banged my head retrieving a 2p coin in Boots but it was worth it!

    Hello,

    Went out early a.m. and found 2p today. These were two 1p coins just off the pavement; just past a bus stop area and opposite a food store. It was a frosty morning and hasn't snow been predicted this month? If so, it will be interesting to read how this affects money finds.

    Thanks for the previous posts.

    1p found today so far, an old/ battered penny outside my local garage- I like to find pennies, i believe that they bring luck (well, maybe just small luck ;))

    I put a twezer into my handbag and will be re-visiting my local Asda coinstar tonight (out shopping) to 'liberate' the stucked 5p that got away from me on Saturday- dedication or what? :rotfl:

    :T Thanks HOK3Y to the awsome challenge, its really addictive! :T

    Woo hoo! Just as I was starting to think you people were making these finds up (or that Scottish people genuinely are as tight with money as everyone says and never drop anything!) I found 20p in the Sainsbury's car park!
