Banner Day Finding Money!

Today I hit pay dirt! At a shopping center, I found a dime in front of a water machine (where you can fill jugs with reverse osmosis water), then I spotted 2 pennies near the curb then 2 more dimes in the parking lot! 

Then I went to the post office and found a penny on the floor. Two people were in line in front of me at the same window, and both missed it (or saw it and didn't care). 

But I'm glad because it's mine, all mine! 33 cents worth!

Have you found coins lately?

Found Three Pennies Inside Pilot, Eloy, Arizona

I headed down to Tucson yesterday to meet an online friend and to see my daughter and family. Had a blast! We gabbed, petted a little cute dog, played at a park, ate chocolate dipped cones, played Angry Birds, colored, gabbed some more, ate great food, gabbed, gabbed, gabbed, took a walk (Lori had to carry poor Gizmo half way through the walk), went to Goodwill and Michaels, ate great Mexican food, and brainstormed in there much of the time, too. 

I am tired! 

On the drive home today I stopped in Eloy, Arizona at the Pilot station for gas. I also had to use the little girl's room so I went inside where I found three pennies on the floor at two different check out lanes. Yay!

3 Pennies -- A Limerick

There once was a store called Safeway
Where I shopped going this way and that way.
In the parking lot I spotted
1 cent then I trotted
Inside to fine 2 more at Starbucks. Yay!

 

Okay, this is the stupidest limerick ever, but that tells the story of the 3 pennies I found last night.
