Well that $20 bill will beat me by a long shot today. A quarter in the reject tray at the counting machine at the bank. A dime, nickel and 10 pennies at the High School parking lot.
Good day of finds on todays walk. A dime and six pennies plus a nice picture of Abe on a $5 bill plus 53 cans. Used the self checkout at Walmart and found a dime in the tray. Nothing at the coinstar.
Lightning can strike twice. I think it was last August I found an envelope with $400.00 dollars in it. Well Last night while driving for Uber, I stopped in a local drug store and on the way out I found an envelope with $250.00 dollars in it! No receipt or anything that can tie the money to its owner. And just a few days ago as posted above I found a $20.00 dollar bill in the parking lot. I think I will play the lottery tonight.

milbroco you need to set a side your roadkill and buy a gold coin with it. You have a super start on it now. My walk today yeilded a quarter, dime & 3 pennies. It sure helps when the sun is out.
@pocketpiececommems ...I must live in a poor area...people just do not lose money such as in your area... @milbroco..... You would really enjoy a gold coin... If just for the pleasure of owning one, get it raw - instead of slabbed... even maybe from the mint (they come in a capsule that can be opened). It is really nice to feel the weight of a gold coin... I like the AGE's... Cheers, RickO
@milbroco...Not too far - Catskill Mountain, NYS.... Yep, that big one is expected here too.. could be up to two feet of the white stuff.... Cheers, RickO
Quarter, nickel & penny + 23 cans on a walk and jog. After today's detecting (new post) I stopped by Walmart to pick up a few things and got a penny at the self checkout
Stopped at Walmart for a little shopping this morning. Always park a distance from the entrance to have a better chance at coins and less chance of damage to the pickup. Found a quarter and a dime. At the self check out there were 5 pennies in the tray. I'm waiting for the day when they leave there bills there for me too. Did a 4 mile walk this afternoon. A quarter, nickel , penny and 62 cans.
Yes, yes, yes @pocketpiececommems , the day that someone leaves bills will be appreciated. And I believe it will happen. Do you return cans for a deposit, aluminum, or the environment ?
Always love your walking finds.
We don't have a deposit on them. I sell for the aluminum to clean up the area. I use the proceeds to by circ commems or silver coins. It just amazes me when you can find change and bills out in the middle of no where at times.
@pocketpiececommems .... I have never known anyone to have as profitable walks/jogs as you have.... a healthy activity and compensation as well..... Cheers, RickO
Nice 'shamrock' picture PPC.... and another nice walk.... I have to wait a while... LOADS of snow here right now... we got 28 inches... and 3-4 foot drifts... likely be some good stuff in the parking lots when it melts.... but more snow due today.. Cheers, RickO
Dang...you guys are unbelievable.... I found a cent by the checkout in the supermarket yesterday.... Wippy dippy doo...... ... Still too much snow here... Cheers, RickO
Metal detected close to my favorite high school parking lot. Found $10.60 in change. No rain and the ground is getting harder. Then I drove over to the high school and walked the lot. Quarter dime and 2 pennies. tomorrow is the first day of Spring. I'm glad the snow is gone
Nice haul PPC.... glad your snow is gone.... Not here... still well over a foot and deeper in the drifts.... Oh well, Spring has sprung.... hope that is the end of snow..... Cheers, RickO
Yesterday (Sunday) A quarter, a dime, a nickle, and a penny at a rest stop on the PA turnpike. All 4 coins within 10 feet of each other. Kind of interesting that it was one of each denomination.

54 cans? Do you carry a sack? Well, yes, you must.... seems like with all those cans, jogging would be uncomfortable...unless you use a back pack. Cheers, RickO
A dime, nickel and penny + 73 cans on my walk/jog today. I carry several of the grocery sacks to give them another use. I generally park the pickup and do my walking warm up and toss the cans in the back. If I do some jogging I will walk some more for a cool down and continue the can pickup. I like the zipper pockets on the warm ups and jogging shorts to keep the roadkill coins in. I did find $2.77 metal detecting yesterday around the edge of a park swimming pool fence. I know a lot of these coins get hosed off of the concrete.
So.....0.16 + 2.77 = 2.93 ......not bad...plus the cans......plus the exercise .....::::::::::::
And you have the 'pick up and drop off' down to a science.
You've got it made, good luck tomorrow
Keep us posted.
If this snow ever melts, I am going to get back to walking as part of my exercise program.... and although I would like to think I could do as well as PPC... I know better.... people around here simply do not lose as much change... and cans are rare....That part is good though... Cheers, RickO
Did some detecting before a walk and jog this afternoon. $7.24 and a dollar bill by some soccer fields and a swimming pool. Quarter, dime and a penny + 17 cans on the walk and jog
PPC, I think if you decided to MD and walk/jog all day every day... you could turn it into a profession... You do better than a lot of gold panners I know.... Cheers, RickO
