Went to Walmart...

This morning, I had to go and get something at WalMart as I was walking to the entrance of the store. I happened to look at the soda machine just out-side, as I looked at the machine on the ground and under the ledge there I saw a round disk as I picked it up saw that it was a quarter.

Small find for July 20, 2010...

Late last night my husband was due to return home from a long trip home. I was at the airport and decided to get a soda, everything was closed due to the late hour did find a soda machine on the lower level (Hmm, sure do charge more for the soda here). I put the $2.00 in quarters in the machine and push the button, out of habit I check the change return slot and found 2 coins a 1982 penny (goes into the 1982's can, I check later and pull out the ones that are copper) and a 2001 Canadian dime (need in my Canadian dime folder). Being not far from the Canadian border don't find a whole lot of Canadian coins. I collect both American and Canadian coins.
