    Nothing on my walk to/from having my hair chopped off this morning :(
    Fast forward three hours, I was walking along the same road and spotted a 50p coin looking up at me :beer:
    So a good day with 50p roadkill and two more loads of tennis balls sold via FleaBay.

    Gazzer, I would have happily gone swimming for that - no problem!

    Moneysavingmomma, welcome aboard and check post 8 for your number! I am sure there is going to be a new thread for December - heck, can you imagine how many pennies are dropped while Christmas shopping?!?!? Bring it on! I want a piece of that action! :D

    SU, well done! You have a pretty healthy roadkill balance for the month. I really can't wait to see how much we have all collected as a group. :)

    Today I am reporting in with 34p found in roadkill and 94p so far in w/r. Couple more to check here soon but not planning on going out again today because it is feezing cold and CHUCKING it down! Home for the night and in my PJs!

    May I join as a (Eu)roadkill rebel?? Am Dutch, and live in Amsterdam with hubbie, and our 2 kids.

    In October we found 3,20E (1e coin, 2e coin, 20cent coin), however, November brought us a lonely 1 eurocent so far! I found it after 1.5 hrs scouring the streets at our local market. It was shiney and new, but it couldn't really impress my daughter who had to remark that she at least found the 2 euro coin outside the snackbar last month!

    I will try my best to add some eurocents to the MSE tally, and in the mean time will continue to enjoy all the rebels' adventures :-).

    Hello appletreeblossom and by all means do join in! I will add a number for you in post 8. Hubby and I lived in the Netherlands for a fair few years down in Zuid Limberg. We have had some great times in Amsterdam. Welcome, welcome! :D
