A Huge Coin Dropping Sunday!

Today we found 3.17 in change and 29 bottles and cans.

Today it seemed that there was more than rain falling from the skies on this gloomy Sunday. Coins were stacked up all over the place during our travels, and we took full advantage on this holiday weekend (see picture).

Michele started out the scoring with 22 cents on her extended walk with Lexi. The first penny came on Mill, then 1 on Payne, 1 on Sherburne, 5 or Railroad Ave, 12 cents at the Depot, one at the back entrance of the high school and one on Water Street. Shortly after that, she went out for her run and found 25 cents in the form of a quarter.

During the afternoon we decided to go shopping because of the lousy weather and managed to pick up one penny in the Demoulas parking lot. We got a really good deal on some rib-eye steaks as well, yum, yum!

The mother-load of coins came during our evening walk. We picked up 8 cents on Main (1 nickel and 3 pennies), and then we snatched up a whopping 2.57 from the car wash (lots of silver and pennies). On our way home we hit the 7-11 and found 3 pennies, then finished up the finds with one penny on Kirk Street.

Good Night and Good Hunting!
