There is old living room furniture in the basement. My mom and I wanted to get rid of it so our contractor is helping us do that.
Since he can’t carry it up to the first floor as he is by himself, he decided to take it apart so it’s easier for him to carry up the stairs.
For now he put it on the first floor. When it’s time for garbage day, he will bring it outside and hopefully sanitation will take it.
While looking at the furniture he took apart I found three pennies, which was unexpected. Now I wonder if there are any more coins in it that I haven’t spotted yet.

That is interesting before it all goes to trash you should inspect it some more,

I think I passed by a penny yesterday, but I didn’t stop to check if it actually was a penny and just kept on going. I had heavy bags in my hands and didn’t wanna deal with it.

@LindaOHio I’ve had my license since I was a teenager, but I’m afraid to drive and don’t feel comfortable behind the wheel. Maybe if I started driving as soon as I got my license, I’d be driving today.
I’m used to carrying heavy bags. I had to do that sometimes when Lenny was around also.

@lovebuglena Too bad you can't drive. Things would be so much easier.

Maybe there are more pennies hidden somewhere. Hehe. It also happens to me at times when I rearrange my furniture or declutter.

You are obsessed with pennies Lena.
If it was $20 bills I could understand it

I’m not obsessed with them. But if I found them, I’m not gonna throw them away. A few years ago, our contract found $40 in the couch he was taking apart.

Well Lena
You do seem obsessed with finding pennies
I like finding money as well but pennies, not worth the effort lol although I do pick them up and I wouldn't throw them away either

@Ineeddentures no I’m not obsessed lol. I just happen to find them. Of all the coins pennies are the ones that pop up the most.
