Found 28 Cents Again Today

On Sunday I found 28 cents and lo and behold, I found 28 cents again today!

This morning I had to go finish up a study I was doing for a skin care product and I stopped at the grocery store and dollar store on the way home. I found a penny on the floor of the grocery store then a nickel in the parking lot of the dollar store.

When I got home I found another penny in my parking lot (that's the third day in a row!). Find with me. My neighbors can just keep dropping money.

Later this afternoon I took a bike ride and found quite a few coins:

• a penny in the street
• 5 pennies in a bank drive through lane
• a dime at a gas station
• a penny in the street almost stuck in tar but I was able to get it
• 3 pennies in an apartment building parking lot

That's 28 cents (13 pennies, a nickel, and a dime)!

I posed this found money on a vintage book I just listed in my Etsy shop. I love the title:  Go To Bed Stories!

Found 28 Cents and Finished Brooke Shields's Memoir

Today I rode my bike for a bit and found a quarter in the street first! Yay! This quarter is really dinged up so I think it might have been there a while getting run over repeatedly. But I saved it!

Then I found a penny in a parking lot then one on the ground next to some vacuums at a gas station. When I got home I found a penny in my parking lot. 

Earlier today I finished listening to the audio book of There Was a Little Girl:  The Real Story of My Mother and Me by Brooke Shields. I don't usually listen to books, but this one was read by the author and it was actually pretty good. What a gal her mom was (said with tongue firmly in my cheek).

Found 28 Cents While Running Errands

Well, if I felt better, I might have kept flitting from place to place. 

Today I ran a bunch of errands and here's what I found:

~ a quarter on the floor at the post office
~ a penny in a check out aisle at the dollar store
~ a penny on the floor at the entrance of Goodwill
~ a penny in the parking lot walking to my car

I was shocked. It was like coins were just waiting for me to find them. But I also went to Big Lots and Fresh and Easy and didn't find a thing. 

Oh, and I found the button in a parking lot.
