    Well I've upped my total by a whole £ today so pleased. Found 36p this morning in and around Sains car park & then this afternoon husband noticed a lot of change on a bench. Someone must have sat down and it slid out! Counted it up 72p. Plus son found 1p. Careless folks about today!

    Mind you, I was waiting for a bus one night this week, & there was an old man on a stick, he pulled out his bus pass and dropped 20p. I went to grab it (for him) & he said, don't worry love it's ONLY 20p! I was bemused and gave it back to him anyway. 20p is enough for a lot of items when they are YS. Surprising who thinks 20p is nothing.

    Hubby found 22p this morning. I found 15p this afternoon.

    Found additional 16p tonight. It felt like every couple of metres there another penny or two pence on the floor.
    31:22 to me.

    I just found a £10 note! We were walking past my favourite wombling spot for coupons as it is where the wind blows everything in our local retail park and I found £10 folded up stuck against a fence. It's a tiny bit damp but fine! Really excited!

  • Well done Bobarella!

    What is the bounty for May, everyone? Mine's a meagre 35p. I am hoping to do better in June!

    Found a penny in Morries - and 2 little cents abandoned on the coin changer. I took them home too, as I have others they can huddle together with.
