found change

July 9th, 2014 at 05:11 pm

I am always amazed at some of the lost change people find. C.B. comes to mind. She is always reporting that she found change on the ground.
Well, last year, I found a grand total of 15 cents.
Yesterday, I found my first change of the year and it is already July. I found 34 cents. Oh well, I am beating last years total!

    It really depends on where you are. I walk daily in very busy areas -- through a parking lot, three train stations, around a college campus. With that many people around, someone is always dropping a coin here and there.

    I've got to throw in my 2 cents here (just so another SA can pick it up and add it to their total). A few changes have happened that have resulted in fewer coins on the roadway for me. First off, all the penny has been eliminated in Canada so I don't see as many. The other thing is that the total bills at most places are now rounded up to the nearest 5 cents. And the other thing that I've noticed is that a big bank has proved free dumping for coins. I've notice a huge decrease - perhaps as much as 90%.
