Roadkill Rebels June 2014

Options
Hello RoadKill Rebels,

Welcome to the June Challenge. The drill is still the same: find as much roadkill as you can between May 1st and 31st.

As HOK3Y said when she launched the first challenge in October 2013, "the only stipulation is that it must be found outside of your home and/or car - it has to be money that genuinely wasn't yours or your family's before you found it! So if you find it down the side of the sofa, it doesn't count!

We also collect wombled receipts and discarded lottery scratch-cards to see if we can make some pennies that way too, and we keep track of these earnings separately."

Please feel free to sign up and don't forget to subscribe!

    Thanks Joylimited for keeping this going.

    I'm in for June aiming for over £1, not likely to beat May so not too ambitious. Nothing today when out and about with the tiddly peeps at an open day, but back to work tomorrow so back into routine and hopefully lots of finds.

    Good luck everyone :)

    After May was such a wash out for roadkill, I'm off to a flying start for June with a shiny 5p found at the checkout in Aldi this afternoon.:D
    Hopefully there's more to come.

    Wow! I've just had a good 10 minutes.
    First, I found a dodgy bronze coin (2p), then a shiny silver coin (5p) followed by a shiny gold coin (£1).
    £1.07 so far today.
    £1.13 so far for the month.
    Hope the rest of the month goes this well!!!
