I do a lot of walking since I don't have a car.
I always keep my eyes on the ground trying to find some money.
The most I ever found was $20 laying in the street.
Have you ever found any money on your travels?

The other day my neighbor and I went for a walk around the neighborhood when we spotted 2 $1.00 bills laying in the middle of the road. Another time I pulled into a parking lot and when I got out of the car I found a $20.00 laying just where I opened the car door. so i always keep my eyes on the grounds. You never know what your going to find

I haven't gotten the chance to find 20 dollars on the ground! How lucky are you! I have only found like spare change that added up to 20 dollars after a certain amount of time.

I have found money on the ground while walking. The most I've ever found has been a few dollar bills here and there. Of course, I still manage to find things like pennies, dimes and quarters on the ground, but usually I just find pennies and dimes. However, all the change that I find I collect it and store it in a piggy bank to turn into the bank later for cash.

My Mum found a pair of designer sun glasses (in perfect condition) when we were out walking in a National Park. I was a bit miffed since I think they really suited me better, but she was in front and she saw them first.
Perhaps I will have to find a reason to borrow them some time...

Hey missy! I never find money ever! I one found $2 on my
way to the busstop, but that was it! My boyfriend always
finds money and lots of it! He finds $100 bills! He found
$100 bills like three times! I wouldn't mind, but he is so
damn cheap and tells me and then never shares! He says God
is blessing him! And I tell him that God doesn't like people
who are cheap and selfish!

Yup! And it feels good to find money on the street. Even my dog finds money on the street. One time, I was walking my dog outside and he came back to me running with several bills on his mouth. Whoa!

I pick up pennies when I find them and put them in my change jaw.
One time I had $26 in Pennies.

Hi there, missybear! Yeah, I do find plenty of coins lying on the ground throughout my experience of walking along paths and roads. But I will have to say that you are really lucky that you manage to find $20 lying on the ground, because the most I have ever found on the ground is a $2 coin (I am currently living in Australia, just for your information ). In fact, I have yet to come across money notes/bills dropped by others in my entire life. It's a very rare occurence that people will accidentally drop a large sum of money, thus I guess we should just be grateful if we ever had the chance to collect some "free" money off the ground.....

I found $1 bills and one $5 but I was happy finding a $20.

A few years ago I also found $20 in the parking lot of a mall. It was also Christmas time so I was so thrilled to have some extra spending money.
