Last night at work I found a whopping 31p! I kept checking the vending machine in the waiting room and my patience paid off, even though I was a little embarrassed with keep pressing the return button in front of a waiting room full of people, but needs must and the determination to improve got the better of me, I HAD to carry on.
So to sum up
vending machine x 10p
vending machine x 20p
floor x 1p
The night before 17/12/13 6p found
Walking mums dog x 1p
Asda x 5p
Total so far = 50p
I can literally feel my roadkill search filter improving every day. Just goes to show you really do get better at it the more you practice.Make £10 a day challenge Jan £231.630 -

Yeah!! CC, getting to the 'don't give a stuff' point definitely works in favour of your available cash balance so well done to you! And yes, you do get better all the time and I think there's a few people on here who are proving that! It's quite lovely to watch!Credit Card Freedom gained 14 Feb 2014!!Total Debt Freedom gained 29 Apr 2014!!Savings goal 30/9/23: £72,000/£538,001.....yes I'm serious!Total Debt August 2013: [STRIKE]$21,587[/STRIKE] April 2014: $0!!!!:j0 -

Hiya Muhren, I found 2 x £20 in Morri$ons car park - never been so gobsmacked in my life!! We also found two scratch cards that paid out £11 in total but I will transfer that to the wr total at the end of the month for this challenge so the numbers in my sig will change. I consider it roadkill for my personal spreadsheet and I use that to update my sig (although it's a bit behind at the mo!) but I'll remove it for the final report at the end of the month.
I did find a rather mahoosive 8p yesterday!Off into town now to see what I can scavenge.....

Parked car,on short walk to school found a 20p,5p,5p,5p just lying all together on the footpath!!You would think a person would notice dropping that many coins at once,wouldn't you??
