Today I found 14 cents (for the second day in a row). . . . all pennies. I also found a small plastic dog, that sadly does not count toward the daily totals.

This morning I went and followed along as an inspector inspected the home I am getting ready to purchase. The good news is that the house will not fall apart under it’s own power anytime in the future. There are a few things that will need to be fixed, but nothing major.

On the way home I stopped at the car wash next to my apartment complex and found four pennies. In the evening I went out again for a few things and I found one penny at the post office at the base of a stamp machine, another penny at another car wash, three pennies at Sonic, and five cents at Kroger. Three of the Kroger pennies were under a change counting machine, one was on the floor by the same machine, and the final penny was on the ground by a self-checkout line.

The plastic dog that I found was at the second car wash that I stopped at. I have taken the liberty of taking a picture of the plastic dog, standing on top of the pennies that I found for the day.



The dog, or course, has been since deposited into my “Not Change Cup,” keeper of things not change.

Totals for the day: 14 cents
Race Totals: $213.43
