Found Money Blog: Two Dimes Are Mine

Today I walked to the grocery store to get my free Fry's (Kroger) item. It was a small container of Nestea Liquid Water Enhancer. I got the lemonade tea flavor. Bet it'll be good on one of those hot summer days coming up.

By the way, if you get an account with Fry's (or whatever your Kroger store is called), they'll send you an email each week with a link to downloading the free item to your card. You just buy it and the price is automatically deducted from your total. Yay! Love free stuff.



So, in front of the grocery store I found a dime under a vending machine and in the store I found another dime on the floor.

Found 7 Coins Total Yesterday and Today

I went to bed last night and as I was reading, I realized I didn't post to my found money blog for the day! I had found two pennies but forgot to post here because I left them in my purse. I was wearing sweatpants, so that's the reason. I usually stick my found money in my pants pocket and take it out when I get home. Oh well! No harm, no foul.

So yesterday, I found those two pennies and I can't remember where. 


Today though, I went to Goodwill (half off day) and ran some other errands andfound these coins:

  • two pennies on the floor of a grocery store in a checkout lane
  • a dime on the floor in the deli
  • a penny in a change tray then a nickel in another change tray, both at self checkout registers
Yay! That makes 20 cents found yesterday and today. 

I posed them next to a cute Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy vintage juice glass I just listed in my Etsy shop.


Oh, one of the coins is a 1934 penny! I really like finding old coins.
