Hi,enjoy reading this thread, love your finds and I don't mind a hoke in a skip either.Anyway, was up at Lidl this morning, spent £19.99, on the way home found a £20 note, so not sure if 1p up or £20.Oh, another wee quickie, on the very first morning of Lockdown1, over a year ago, I decided to have early morning walks.So set out at 5am and first corner I turned, found a fiver, mmm, I thought, this lockdown is ok.Anyway good luck to y'all, and take care.10

Welcome FrugalMacDugal
There aren't even pennies around my area and hasn't been for quite a few months.
Had to go shopping today so wombled all my own penny pots to the tune of £1.20.........still thrilled even though it was already mine. I am so easily pleased......
And then I gave a pound to someone outside......

£1 coin left in a trolley at the back of Tesco where the buses pull in. Quite often find one there as people see their bus coming, grab their shopping out of the trolley and dash off without plugging the trolley back in.Used to be Bogof_Babe. It did need updating!5

Through de-cluttering I found a £10.00 note scrunched up in a receipt only to discover it's an old one !
Thouroughly disappointed as I could do with a boost.....
