Orb K Is a PENNYtentiary

Val is not a paid influencer, and does not receive a kickback for her endorsement. That said, GO TO ORB K FOR ALL YOUR PENNY NEEDS!

SUNDAY, September 8, I was thrilled to glance down and see a penny at my feet while buying scratchers.

It was a 1982, face down, kind of camouflaged by the unpolished away tile surface. Little did I know that another penny was lurking, there in the confinement of the metal energy-supplement rack!

Even littler did I know that when I turned around, I'd seen ANOTHER lurker!

Oh, yeah! Come to mama, baby! The penny. Not the scrap of trash that first caught my eye.

We're talkin' about this face-down 1974.

WEDNESDAY, September 11, I was back in Orb K, trading scratchers. Cashed in $30, won $25. I'll take that any day. It still beats the odds.

It was a triple play for Val! I was quite aware that it could have been a FOURPLE play, were I only more limber. As it was, I could barely scoot that wall-penny out with the toe of my shoe. After the near-tipping incident a few weeks ago in Casey's, I knew better than to try and bend over while reaching.

You may have to zoom in to see them, but all three pennies are right there on the penny-colored section of floor. The first two were heads-up, and the third was showing its tail. In no particular order, because they all jangled together in my shirt pocket, they were a 2007, 1988, and 2004.

Yes, the same dust bunnies and crumbs were on the floor as Monday. Those slovenly slackers! I bet they might sweep if they knew a penny was still trapped under the rack!

Or maybe not.
