Hello,carryli,when i see 1 dollar on the ground,i think i will not pick it up as it is not much and cannot do anything,it is not enough to buy a meal in McDonald.:P,i will just walk away and pretend not to see it as i do not want to make my hands dirty,but if i see a 50 dollar note on the ground,i will swoop down and pick it up at once:P.I am greedy:)

I would pick it up without hesitation and not at all feel embarassed about it. If I didn't pick it up, the next person to come along would, so it's my good fortune instead of theirs.
Now if it's a penny, dime or a quarter I would probably ignore it and let a kid find it. To them it would be a big deal and might make their day.

If I saw a dollar on the ground I would pick it up and I would not feel embarrassed at all. I would even pick up a penny though I might feel a bit embarrassed about that one! Money is money and it does all add up [eventually]!

yes, i would definitely pick it up! ;0
money is hard to find this day,
and as they say.
a penny lost is a penny found. ;0 lolz. ;0
and besides, why would i feel embarassed?
i think there is no reason for me to be embarassed,
its not like i stole it. :) lolz. :)

I would definitely pick up a dollar if I saw it one the ground. For a dollar, I can get two cans of condensed milk, 10 eggs, a loaf of day old bread, 2.5 bags of M & Ms, 1 large soft serve ice cream at Sam's club (for 5 cents more with tax), an hour of parking at the gym, 2 rolls of paper towel, 1 roll of Scott toilet paper, and something at an Asian fast food restaurant/store near my home. So, it's a lot to me. I also pick up coins, especially quarters and I need those for laundry.

I meant to say that each one of those items cost a dollar, not all of them together.

I live in the USA. We have a lot of "dollar" stores here. But, actually, you can get things pretty cheap at Wal Mart and some grocery stores.

I would happily pick it up and consider myself lucky! I always pick up money I find on the ground because even pennies and dimes can add up after a while. Besides, someone else is just going to come along and take it if I don't.
