Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

I pick up any/all change that I find on the ground and I have been doing that for a few years now. I keep it in a separate jar from my pocket change and I actually started adding up the money I pick up and it usually comes to around $1,000 each year (give or take a hundred) and I use it to take a vacation. So I give a big THANK YOU to all the people who drop their change as I've had some great trips!

Answer 2

Do it a hundred times and you've earned yourself a dollar for free!
Do it 10 times with a dime . . .
Do it 4 times with a quarter . . .
Need I say more?
An old English saying: find a penny, pick it up, all day long you'll have good luck.
Not necessarily true, but you're a penny richer than before!

Answer 3

i pick up pennies if they are face up.
it doesnt hurt to have a little luck.
but if pennies are face down, i flip them over for someone else to have a chance at luck. ;)
but yeah if i see a quarter, i'd pick it up.

I pick up loose change all the time. I mean change is still money, and theres no reason it should just be laying on the ground. it all adds up..
