Absolutely. I wouldn't pass one up. In parking lots and on sidewalks, I scan the ground to find them (and other coins).

I pick up pennies that has the head facing up. I might be a little superstitious but I believe the saying that pennies with the head facing up brings good luck. When the tales face up, I turn it over so that the next person that finds it would have good luck.

I always do. No reason to pass up free money, no matter how small.

I haven't been so lucky enough to find some pennies in the ground. But maybe, if that opportunity comes, I have to pick it up. I mean, there's nothing wrong with picking a penny up. No one owns it and I found it. I guess if I will not pick it, somebody else will do. But if the money I found is worth more than that, I have to look for the owner and return it to her.

No question about it, I DO! My friends really do laught at me whenever I do that. I usually tell them that it's a lucky coin,, but they merely shrug it off. Not that I really believe that it's a lucky coin or anything, I just find it fun . After all, a dollar wouldn't be completed if it lacked a cent.

There is nothing wrong with picking up a penny or any change for that matter. I pick up all change and put it in my jar. Yoiur right it's free money.

I always do! i cant help it as i love to have something for nothing! Like my good old nan used to say "look after the pennies and the pounds will look after their selves" i never quite knew what this meant but it seems like it fits here haha, By the way you need to put commas between your tags or they come out as one big link. Happy posting :)

Ofcourse I will pick up pennys everytime I saw them they may worth a little but when they are saved & grow they will worth much I also find them useful doing grocery especially if the cashier has no enough coins.
