What is the smallest coin you would pick up off the ground?

[essbee]

of course........the times I've left a 5p on the pavement and then later in the
day I've been just 5p short to buy something. What a crazy, crazy world.

 

[SeagullSongs]

10p if it were in a normal street, 20p on a busy platform, unless it was right on the edge. Then I might risk it for a 50p.

Whats the smallest chance you have of doing a search.

No poll! and a different scenario. I voted 50p above but if I saw 5p while I was ambling along a quiet pavements I'd pick it up.

I don't think i would bend over for a nine bob note at falmer

 

[Ninja Elephant]

I'd murder the granny in front of me to get to that penny. I keep them in a great big pot, they all add up!

Thrupence.

Loved a thrupenny bit

 

[Everest]

2p

I'd leave the penny for a Palace fan, he'd think it was a pound.

a penny, you never know one day you might be a penny short for your bus fare or you might want to only put £20
of fuel in your car but go over by a penny at the pump! Then what would you do if you didn't have that extra penny in your pocket?
And remember
If you invest your penny
Wisely in the bank
Safe and sound
Soon that penny,
Safely invested in the bank,
Will compound

When you deposit that penny in a bank account
Soon you'll see
That it blooms into credit of a generous amount
Semiannually
And you'll achieve that sense of stature
As your influence expands
To the high financial strata
That established credit now commands

1p because...

Find a penny,
Pick it up,
And all the day you'll have good luck.

...or give it to a friend

And your luck will never end

PS I had a tyre blow out on my lorry on a motorway once. I drove to the nearest emergency phone on the hard shoulder to call a tyre fitter out, and while I was waiting, I went to the side of the wagon for a Gypsy's, and upon looking down, lo and behold, there was a shiny new £1 coin on the ground Got me a cup of tea IIRC

I actually found a POUND in Waitrose car park the other day. Result,

well, it WAS Waitrose.

1p because...

Find a penny,
Pick it up,
And all the day you'll have good luck.

Find a penny,
Pick it up,
Then all day you'll have a penny.

When I was a kid, during the summer holidays, we used to superglue loose change to the pavement outside my mates house in Kemp Town. Hours of fun watching people try it up whilst we'd shout "Pikey ****" out the window. One bastard did come back with a chisel though and cleaned up.

Classic
