The week started out with terrible bad luck! I spied a penny on the floor of the Liquor Store on Saturday. Since nobody was at the counter, I went straight there, intending to get that penny on my way out. But NO! A man came in behind me, and PICKED UP THAT PENNY!!! You snooze, you loose! He didn't even take a picture of it! What good is a single cent unless you are a conscientious collector?
SUNDAY, November 20, I showed up at Country Mart because Save A Lot was bereft of breasts! I didn't want a full turkey, so I had to go looking elsewhere. It was meant to be, because when I stepped out, I saw a penny!
Not that large circular piece of trash behind the tire. It's by that bird-poopy white splotch, just below it, at about the 5 o'clock position.
It was a face-down 1986 penny, chillin' on the pavement. Then warming in my shirt pocket.

FRIDAY, November 25, was not Black Friday at all for Val! It was a red-letter day for penny-finding! I went to the Sis-Town Casey's for T-Hoe's gas, and found a penny waiting for me at the counter.
Good thing it wasn't waiting for that little gal in the sneakers!
It was a face-down 1994 penny.
At my next stop, Country Mart for my $3 scratchers, I was rewarded with no winners, but a treat on the way out.
A beauty there in the late-afternoon shadows!
This was a face-down 2019 penny. So pretty there on the pink tile.

There's that lovely pink and green floor I like so much! And a penny which is less important to me.
ReplyDeleteIt IS a nice color combination for the floor. The closeup did not do justice to the hue. This is only in the entryway area, not throughout the store, which has white tile.
DeletePublic has turkey breasts for $1.69/lb. I don't know where you live.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip, but we don't have a Publix in our area of Missouri.
