35 More Places to Find Coins

September 25, 2015 by Alexa Mason

35 More Places To Find Coins
Do you know a person who is always finding money? Do you ever ask yourself how is it possible that Mary/John or Joe always seem to find money wherever they go? Well, it begins with the process of always picking up the change that crosses your path. Here are 35 places to find coins.

• Under your washer.
• Under your dryer.
• On the street.
• At the restaurant on the floor next to the cash register.
• Old bank accounts
• Forgotten IRS returns
• In an old secret hiding place.
• Your baby’s diaper bag. Most parents will throw a wallet into the bag and then change will fall out.
• In your high-end camera bag.
• Change is almost always at the bottom of one of my backpacks.
• In between the cushions in your car.
• In any guy’s pants pocket.
• Next to a fountain that people throw coins in and make a wish. I tend to throw these in the fountain…just in case!
• Whenever the giant pile of snow melts you definitely find change…and some other things.
• Under a ski lift; you will also find tons of gloves, sunglasses, and the occasional hat.
• In your kid’s piggy bank. Hopefully you don’t have to use it though.
• In an old coffee can that was being used as a coin collection jar.
• At your Grandma’s house in odd places.
• In an old coin bag that you used to throw in your purse.
• In your random collection of boxes that everyone seems to always have.
• In the seat of your moped.
• Next to the ticket machine at the light rail station.
• On the bus.
• In your kid’s cheerleading bag.
• On the dance floor-but those coins are usually a little sticky.
• Underneath the outdoor patio at your local bar. If you’re lucky you’ll find some crumpled up dollar bills.
• In the sand at the beach.
• At your next food truck festival you may find change next to the front of each food truck. People are usually furiously digging through their pockets to pull out some change to make their purchase.
• At the “circle of death” during your next cruiser ride. The “circle of death” is where all the cruiser ride participants ride around and party at the end fof the night.
• You’ll sometimes find change on the patio that surrounds your local swimming pool or on the bottom of the pool if other swimmers tossed a coin in for fun. CAUTION-if you aren’t a strong swimmer avoid retrieving those coins.
• In your old yoga bag for the yoga class that you don’t take anymore.
• In your old swear jar.
• Sticking to the bottom of your shoe. It has been known to happen.
• Old garage sale change boxes.

There is an endless number of possibilities to explore and consider when looking to find loose change. Make finding change a game and over time you will be amazed at how often you will find change around you. Let your friends and family know about your loose change love. Have fun!
