Change

The Found Change count for 2010 is……. (drum roll please!)…….

$1.19

 

.25 = 1

.10 = 7

.01 = 24

 

This is down 86¢ from last year.  Could it be that because the economy is so bad that people are more careful with their change?  Or maybe more people are bothering to pick up change from the ground?  Or maybe I just wasn’t as lucky this past year?

The world may never know  shrug

I can only hope to find more in 2011  laughing

Found Change for 2009

It’s time to add up the loose change I found during the past year.  I’ve been out in stores and shopped a whole lot less than 2008, so I am really surprised that I found as much change as I did. 

The grand total for 2009 came to $2.05 – more than my total for 2008!

Here is the breakdown:

.25 - 3
.10 – 9
.05 – 4
.01 – 20 (including a wheat penny!)

 

So far the total amount of change I found laying on the ground for the past three years adds up to $15.05… certainly not Fort Knox, but I’ll take it!
