    Hello,

    I'd like to join please. I've been reading the thread and missed a couple of opportunities to start as it's been too busy to pick up without being really obvious... Some change on the floor when queuing up for hot dogs last weekend and lots of coins spotted by the side of the coin machine in the supermarket on Monday. But last night I was feeling brave and picked up two receipts with unclaimed club card points, 14points in total....

    Blimey Joy limited - that is amazing going.

    Mummy tummy - that is brilliant . I keep thinking if only I keep looking for pennies I'm hound to see a note one day!

    Pipe - you will get hardened to it. I am 90 % more brazen at picking up coins now.

    Found 3 x 5p coins all together on the pavement as I was walking back to my car. Also found a 20p coin right next to the guy selling the big issue, I had just said to him no thanks so picked the coin up and gave it to him.
