What do you find on a routine basis? and why do you think this happens to/for you?

also, ever found anything in the sand,and what things have you found and do you enjoy finding things or not?


why or why not?





I have a "usual list" of things that I find, mostly!


I.D. cards,rubber balls, marbles, or glass that you put into plant holders,guitar picks, jewlery, money..(I have a joke about finding my "11 cents" a dime and a penny!) LOL!,also,dog toys and kids toys,clothing,knives,(I found a small Victorinox red swiss army knife," the basic" one,(in the sand!)


also, pens,pencils,tools, shovels and sand toys, and odd things like cups and glasses, etcoh,and peoples photos, and bank cards(which I always return, along with the I.D. cards also..usually!, and if it is a lot of money, or expensive(like the diamond ring I found,I turn that in too!)..and whatever..I forget..but, that is what I usually find! What about you?





I love finding things everywhere!I don't even use a metal detector..I just see them and find them!!LOL!

I like your question! ;-) My husband finds money all the time but I'm not so lucky. Outside of a bank he found almost $100 in 20 dollar bills just blowing around in the wind. We tried to find the owner but never did...awww schucks. But most of the time it's change.


I found a huge business payroll checkbook in a grocery cart once and a purse with everything in it in a parking lot. We managed to return both of those.


But the funniest thing is at my daughter's house. When she first moved into this fixer-upper we found pennies all over the place. We didn't keep count but there was a lot! Then over the 7 years they've lived there all of a sudden a penny will appear, like in the middle of the floor she just vacuumed or mopped. They find pennies in the yard while gardening and in the grass. Very weird!


Thanks for the question!
Reply:I once found £2 that was pretty useful. Normally all I find in the sand is pieces of wood!
Reply:Serendipity springs to mind. I often find odd buttons or beads, sometimes money, such as the £2 found by the above person. The beach finds are fascinating, aren't they? Down on the Jurassic Coast (Dorset, UK) I found a fossil just lying on the pebbly beach. The saddest thing recently was someone's Muslim prayer beads lying outside a local supermarket. I have kept them in a safe place, but hope they didn't have sentimental value to the person who lost them.
Reply:normally the only thing i find is a bunch of dumb questions on Y/A, but not much else.
Reply:Once I found a $20 bill by a trash can at my brother's baseball game. But usually I find pain. Usually because I'm not paying attention. Ex.:


Friday I walked headlong into a concrete pole that was wider than I am, Saturday I got a papercut on my arm at work handing someone their receit, Sunday I scraped the back of my heel on my bike petal, Monday I bruised my arm wrestling a ladder into place, and today I hit myself in the head with the car door. It's an exciting life.
