Do you pick up money on the street?

March 5, 2009 10:42am CST
Usually if I see something that is 10p or over I'll pick it up and put it in my piggy bank! I think it all adds up once you've been doing it for a while... My auntie does it all the time, and she has filled many money jars and the money she has earned has went towards lots of things! Do you pick up money? And if you do, what do you do with it/spend it on?

The highest I remember, I picked up money from the road is about 10 (India Rupees).. I am not lucky enough to find it frequently.., and generally I spend the money as usual as I spend my money. and remember, Finders are keepers; Loosers are sweepers..

I always pick up coins in the street, even if it's only 1p. I have been saving all my own pennies, and those I have found, for over a year now. I sometimes find a 5p but not much of higher value. When I lived in London I found £20 notes on more than one occasion, but since moving out of London I have found nothing higher than an occasional £1 coin.

Ahh.. I live in Newcastle... I think the most I've ever found is a £20 note on a bus once. Usually I find money around the schools... Children tend to throw their 5p's and 10p's away. I don't know why anyone would do that :P Also, thanks for replying to my discussion! I appriciate it! ~ James

yeah, I do pick up money whenever I see it on the streets or anywhere. I put them in my daughter's piggybank and it's deposited afterwards. I believe that the picked up are blessings that will multiply in time.

I pick up coins sometimes but not always. Guess I spend it on whatever I normally spend money on :) We use to have a coin worth approximately 1P (actually LESS) it's gone now since years back but that coin I really didn't mind dropping myself.
