This is a follow up photo from my previous post (Philippines New Year's Eve Superstition). For those who haven't heard of this superstition that we practice on NYE, this photo will give you an idea of the scenario during the scattering of the coins around our house.
* as much as I want to attach more than 1 photo, I cannot do that since this site only allowed to upload only 1 photo

@JSAph8888 We sang karaoke where the one who gets a score of 100 will get a prize of one hundred pesos and ofcourse I was the one who gave away the prizes. It's fun too.

Interesting, never heard of this practice before. And by the way if you want to share more than one photo you can use an app like PhotoGrid and make a collage of a few photos. That's what I use.

I thought they only do this in the blessing of the house or establishment.

What is the object here? Just see who can get the most coins or the highest amount of the total?

That is true here you can only upload one picture to one post. If you have someway to put a few pictures together then you can upload them that way.

It depends on you. Either you want to keep it to yourself, put it in a bank/piggy bank or spend it
