    Hubby popped to the shops tonight and came back with 6p plus 57 euro cents and a usa cent coin.
    Those small euro coins came in use when we went to Porto in the summer.

    I think this is going to be a quiet month for me and will be as the weather gets worse over the next couple of months.

    Thought I had lost 2 x £1 coins yesterday but eventually found them in the van I was in. Was gutted that I thought I had lost them!

    Edit- I found 1p outside the gym tonight.

    Yesterday I found 1p and hubby found 2p.
    Today, I had a really good day - found £2.00 coin, 2 x 5p, 1x 2p and 6 x 1p. Also found a 1 Turkish lira and 1 Bulgarian stotinka - the lira looks just like a £2 coin but slightly smaller. We were celebrating for a few seconds.

    I'm really jealous of all of your finds, so far I've been having a rubbish October! I've only just managed to break the 10p barrier :rotfl:

    I called into the university library yesterday, and to my horror the hot drinks machine that used to be great for the odd bit of forgotten change has been replaced with a new machine!

    On Friday a hot chocolate cost 80p, now exactly the same drink from the new machine costs £2 :mad:

    I found £2 and a pretty ring yesterday, and I gave both to charity, so it doesn't count, but it feels really good anyway :T

    20p today in the street today, which brings my total for the month to 46p
