Deep In The Heart Of Texas!

Today we found 29 cents in change and 94 bottles and cans.

Sox Update – Thanks to some terrific offense, we took game one of a 3-game set with the Rangers. Dice-k pitched pretty well until the fourth, but then became ill (stomach virus). Even with that, though, he did gut out 5 innings while his teammates hammered out 10 runs for him. After that, the bullpen took over and made it stick. Tim Wakefield takes the mound in game two.

Money Report – It was a relatively slow day for coins, probably due to everyone traveling over the long weekend. After getting in a run where I didn’t find any coins, I headed out on the mountain bike where I gathered up 27 cents (1 quarter, 2 pennies). All of the finds came at the 7-11. The evening walk only added 2 more cents to our total. Both pennies were found at the car wash.

Cap Update – So far, our coke rewards point total stands at 4,108. We would have more points but I’ve been spending 3 of every 30 entered per day on two of the sweepstakes prizes. Let’s hope we win. We’ve come up empty so far on the Pepsi promotion, but we continue to add entries. The Sunkist promotion has netted us a music download and wallpaper but nothing substantial, and the Dr. Pepper promotion has us at a total of 4 points. We just haven’t run across many of these yet.
