    Yes, always pick up the pennies -- always look forward to trips to the big city with the Mrs. cause I usually find the big money (silver coins) on the ground there.

    In a parking lot, in a store, at the movie theatre, etc. I have no shame. I also still hop on the shopping cart and ride it back to the car in the parking lot. Let onlookers think what they will.

    I've always wondered though. . . what if there was money on the floor in the bank? You can't pick up a candy bar off the floor in a store and call it yours; that is still considered stealing. If you pick up ground money in the bank is that considered robbing it?

    Quoted from mario_1_up:

    I pull change out from underneath snack machines.

    One of my jobs in college was working an overnight shift at the Veterinary Hospital. Each night I'd look under all the vending machines and more often than not came away with a dollar or more each time. Having long arms came in handy.

    Quoted from bonzo442:

    We used to put those fake $5 bills with advertising on one side under the cusions so the coin sniffers would think they they hit the mother load

    I used to keep this 20 in my toolbox and now my work clipboard.

    I am no religion pusher, but keep it around because I always wanted to catch someone taking it.

    Tools at the shop I used to work in always found a way to grow legs. Fake money probably would not discourage people from taking stuff but at least it leave them a little disappointed.
