I found lots of little bits today as I did Christmas shopping:
5p in food court
1p in mcdonalds(I go in there specially to look for roadkill:since I started this challenge,everytime I've been into Mcd I have found something,always where people queue at counter.)I missed out on a 50p piece,though:had my eye on it,waiting for a girl to move so I didnt need to swoop between her legs.Unfortunately her friend saw it first :wall:
1p at school(son found it,again.)
20p and 1p in ASDA,nr self serve tills
1p in local PO shop
1p somewhere else,can't remember,but it was in my roadkill pocket :rotfl:
It is nice having lots of little finds.But wouldn't it be nice having a bigger find,for a change.

Only found 15p so far - not doing too well. I leave the house most mornings when its still dark and get home quite often when its dark, so not able to see much.

Some really great finds reported this month and don't be disheartened amy_jay - it gets easier, I promise!
Stebo, as long as the tumble drier was in a launderette, you can count it. If you find money in your home, you can't as it was likely yours already to begin with.
I've found a few pennies over the last few days and I need to update my signature but Mr HOK3Y is currently hogging the computer.......today I found 3 x 5p and a 5 euro cent coin that is in the euro stash for the next trip to the mainland. Had to laugh because I ran into a friend on the way to the train station and he said he was thinking about me and walking to find coins.....at which point I swooped down and picked up my first 5p.....then told him the law of attraction was working well.....he asked how I figured that......I told him he was thinking of me and so he found me, whereas I was thinking of the money!!! Lol!!!
