And as randomperson demonstrates, if you're looking, you can find lots of other good stuff, too! Sometimes when I am walking to work I carry a plastic bag and pick up recyclable things, too. It's easy to drop them in the bin when I get there. I always pick up pennies. And as randomperson demonstrates, if you’re looking, you can find lots of other good stuff, too!
