Wow, how time flies by. It's been awhile since my last update. Lots of ground to cover so lets get started. Over the last 2 weeks I collected another 11 cans, all from work as we have roughly about a foot of snow on the ground and with these cold temps, it's here to stay until Spring unless we get a thaw with some rain.  As far as change goes, I found .51 in various places and I got a .01 "keep the change" guy, (it's been quite a while since one of those).  Some of the places that the change was found at include .26 at Newbury Comics, .02 at Shaws, and yesterday I scored .03 cents at the Stop N Rob coinstar plus .56 in Canadian and a 1941 wheaty and the best find , a 1940 Mercury dime. I love finding silver at the coinstar. That brings us up to date as far as the fund goes. 
A side note:
I have been found out!!! I didn't think I had much, if any readership, which is ok. I always just considered this blog a tool for recording my finds. Well it seems a link to this blog is on another blog that gets lots of attention. (The New York City Changepot) So we will see what that brings.
Change: .52
Cans: .55
Jan. Total: $7.30

Update:
I cashed in the cans & bottles today and collected $15.30, I also found .03, all pennies at Stop N Rob.
Change: .03
Jan. Total: $7.33
