I second the tip about looking down when in pubs/clubs, especially near the bar. I always pretend to drop something and then have a right good ol' rummage. Nearly always coppers but some £1 coins there too..... so if you see a girl in Leeds on her hands and knees squinting and rummaging, say hi cos it'll probably be me!!Toluna - 68,260 points (16,300 pending) | Pigsback - £2.72 (claimed £30) | Global Test Market - 230 points | OnePoll - £12.30 | Lightspeed - 480 points | YouGov - £15.75 | Pinecone - £8.000

Whooo, this challenge has my name written all over it. Been picking up anything I can find but it does get quite embarising to pick up coins in busy areas but that's when you have to tell yourself to just bend down and get it.... they probably do not know you anyway!Smile more often, it's FREE :hello: Live on £4000 for a year stalker!0

I found 3p just sitting innocently on front of fruit machine in pub last night, obviously swiped it! Bf walk past it saying it wasn't worth picking up!!!:rolleyes:
I'm 3p nearer being a millionaire :rotfl:
Other than that, not too much luck so far this month, everyone must be keeping tight hold of their money?Who says I have to be normal?0 -
Well, I found £3.34 down the sofa last night, not exactly on the street, but I think it fell out of my BF's pocket, but I'm not telling, it's gone in the pot.:j Despite my sister asking if we could get sweets (she's 23!!!):rotfl:LBM - March 2007
