I spotted 20p lying in the gutter near a bus stop but had to leave a 2p coin I saw lying in the middle of a busy road junction.

My 5 year old spotted 2p outside the newsagents today and had it in his pocket as quick as a flash telling me "another coin for my money box mum. I want to find 10 more". So, he is now officially ahead of me and my rather pathetic sounding 1p!!! Will keep hunting.0

I can add another 10p to my total now. I found it in the kitchen at work. I think that's me up to 29p so far.0
