How Much Change Can You Find?

Day 41 - Found three pennies

2007-08-11T13:28:00.000-04:00

Found three pennies yesterday as I walked around Vancouver.

One was outside a 7-Eleven store on West Georgia Street.
One was in the pedestrian walkway inside BC Place as we left the BC Lions game.
One was on the sidewalk somewhere I don't recall anymore. Perhaps it was on the way to the SeaBus? Who knows.

Day 22 - Another penny

2007-07-23T09:20:00.000-04:00

Found another penny while going to the Police concert last night.

Day 20 - Found a penny

2007-07-21T17:39:00.000-04:00

Yay, found a penny at Paddy's today in Sarnia on the patio. Actually, it was an American penny, but I'm counting it just the same towards my total, given that the Canadian dollar is doing so well against the American dollar. :-)

Day 12 - Nada today

2007-07-12T13:37:00.000-04:00

Didn't find anything today while out running errands.

Day 10 - Found a penny

2007-07-11T10:21:00.001-04:00

It was beside a pay phone just outside my dentist's office. I looked around the pay phone for any more change, as I know people often drop it around them, however I didn't find any more.

Day 6 - Still Nothing

2007-07-06T10:04:00.000-04:00

*sigh* My search is still turning up nothing, although I admit I haven't been out and about much this week. I'll see if I can find anything today and this weekend, when there's lots of people in the city because of various events (the Toronto Grand Prix, a Toronto Blue Jays game, the Corso Italia street festival & a few other festivals).

Day 2 - Found a penny

2007-07-02T20:34:00.001-04:00

Okay, I didn't find the penny, my sister did, so it won't count towards the official total, but I thought I'd mention it anyways. :-)

Day -1: Before the Hunt

2007-06-30T23:41:00.000-04:00

Here we are, at the beginning of the challenge, again. You see, a few months ago, my friend Melanie & I decided to have a little race to see how much change we could find on the ground in 4 months. We didn't find a heck of a lot, but I had fun, so I thought I'd see if I could keep up the chase. I've been reading a few "found change" blogs online for a while now, and some people seem to have a lot of success finding change, so I thought I'd give it a shot. Now, while I don't expect to actually find tons of moolah, I'm curious to see how much I will actually find. Stay tuned for the chronicles.

Stats:
Total found before starting: $0.93
Total for 2007: $0.93
