In the past 5 days, I have found 60 cents:

I found this money here, there, and everywhere:  in the street, on the store of a floor, in parking lots, in some rocks by a sidewalk.

One of the pennies I found is a 1956 wheat penny!

Saturday I went camping (yes, in a tent!). Here's a pretty picture of the area north of Flagstaff where we camped.

Found Money Blog: 60 Cents While Out and About

Today I ran some errands this morning and found a penny in a parking lot then a penny on the floor of the grocery store. That makes 2 pennies.

Later in the day I rode my bike and found even more:

• 1 penny, 1 nickel, and 2 quarters in a drive through lane (way back where the cars drive up after ordering)
• 1 penny in a parking lot
• then 1 more penny in another parking lot

That's 58 cents for 60 cents total found today. Yay! I love these "big found money" days!
