Default I found a $20.00 bill

I found a $20.00 bill and spent it just that quick as I found it. I was looking for a quarter. Stopped at a local quilt shop on my way from meeting with a couple and bought the 2 Fold 'n' Sew wreath patterns. The regular square and the hexie. Only $11.00+ tax. So now between the patterns and the video I should be in good shape. Told myself if I come across any extra spot change then I'd get a pattern so I was able to get both and at a good price. The owner of the quilt shop wouldn't let me post a photo but it was for Christmas. Either way I would have had to pay for shipping.

That's funny. I love finding forgotten money in coat pockets and hidden zipper compartments in my purse.

I would love to find some "lost" money, if I'm the one who lost it! I hate to think of finding someone else's "lost" money, because that person probably needed it!

I must be missing something. What would they not let you post a photo of? Certainly not the patterns you bought...so it must be something in the quilt shop itself.

Bet that put a big smile on your face. It sure would have put one on mine.

Lucky you. I would always find a lot of pennies whenever I went to amusement parks.

Find a penny
Pick it up
All day long
You'll have good luck!

I find a penny and then I find a dime!

The only place I found a $20.00 bill was at the casino and my first thought was to take it to the lost and found and
then figured out that the person will assume he lost it playing the slots or something - and if I found it I would save it for something special and not spend it on the slots. Still have the $20.00! I am going to get something special, but I just haven't found the something special and I had, at one point, forgotten that I had stashed away the $20.00 bill. Edie
