Carelessness is next to Val-wish-ness! So many people losing track of their coins this year!
SUNDAY, January 15, I was leaving the School-Turn Casey's when I saw a magnificent sight!
Heh, heh! All those sunglasses are watching it for me! My THIRD dime of 2023!
It was a face-down 2012 dime, patiently awaiting harvest.

TUESDAY, January 17, I stopped by the Sis-Town Casey's after dropping off The Pony's new auto insurance card. I was meant to be there that day and time!
Right in my path, hiding in plain sight from the unenlightened...
It was a heads-up 1995 penny, totally ignored by those dudes ahead of me.

WEDNESDAY, January 18, I had to wait in line for the Country Mart lottery machine. While standing a respectful distance, I watched another customer getting trinkets out of the kid machines. My mind wandered, but after my lottery machine turn, I saw...
A penny awaiting my pocket! I don't know if that guy dropped it, or if he was kneeling on it and I didn't see it at first.
It was a face-down 2012 penny. I can bookend this week's finds by coin or by date!

ReplyDeleteThat's two of us!
DeleteGirl you are rolling faster than the coins you are collecting. Dimes now? WOW!
ReplyDeleteThis pace will be hard to maintain!
DeleteWhen my Jeff was a skinny little boy, he would always check pay phones and usually was rewarded with some coins. I f Ilost track of him while in the grocery, I could always find him near the soda machines. Usually lying on his belly and sweeping his arm under the machines. This was back in the 80's when a quarter was a big deal to a kid! Not that I am suggested you lie down on the floor ......
ReplyDeleteI hope not! I would never get back up. Then again, maybe coins would rain down upon me.
DeleteIf I lost track of my boys, I could find The Pony hiding in the middle of a round clothing rack, and Genius bothering the minimum-wage workers of the electronics department, asking when they expected to get new hard drives.
