    Ah, MB, what could you do? Your logic is spot on. Maybe there will come a time when you can pay it forward to someone in need. x

    Another 5 pence for me yesterday in the pub after my GA meeting, although I gave it to another members son who had just turned 1. I did put a replacment 5 pence in to an old bottle of cider I am using for collecting my finds!

  • Well I'm up to 26p so far. Being at work seems to be where I find the most money.

    20p - Vending machine
    5p - Floor
    1p - Floor

    I took a patient to the ward the other night and we were heading past a vending machine and I'd already clocked the 20p credit when he asked to stop to get something out of the machine. I thought Oh no there goes my 20p! So I thought on quickly and said there's a much better machine further on with more choice, do you want to check it out? Yes, he said, hehehe I collected the 20p on my way back :D

    Even better is that I only spent 65p and got a Nectar point for using my own bag LOL Kerching!!!

    Jazzy, take a walk out on an evening, especially past any fast food places nearby and if you have a train/bus station definitely wander in there!

    I am a coin, I am small and round (or round enough) to roll over smooth surfaces but will stop when I hit something...

    I am small and metal and want to be found and picked up and loved, I need to be held tight! But sometimes people forget me in slots and I get cold and lonely and need someone to save me :(

    I am a coin... I am a coin.... Ohmmmm...

    Now I'm a note! and I'm light and blow in the breeze but get stuck in puddles and in mud!!!

    I also like to be folded so I look like scrap paper or a receipt... Sometimes I like to hide IN a receipt!!!

    But I'm a coin at heart and also want to be found and picked up and loved...

    I am a note and people love me more than coins... I am a note... Ohhmmm...
