Change Pot Tuesday

Change Pot Tuesday is a weekly recap of finding money that other people have lost. However, it is more than just picking up pennies and collecting lost change. For those readers and followers who have begun following the Change Pot midway, Change Pot Tuesday is about charity. When the Change Pot reaches $100, it will be donated to charity and the process will be started all over again. Loyal readers and followers will have an opportunity to help me choose which charity will receive the money accumulated in the Change Pot. While, I don't expect to change the world with the Change Pot, I do hope to help a charity in some small way.

Saturday - $0.01. I found a single penny outside of the Sheetz in Star City while getting fuel and something to drink for our drive to Pittsburgh.

Monday - $0.10. I found a dime at the Sheetz near Chestnut Ridge while getting breakfast on the way to work.

Tuesday - $0.02 total. I found a penny near the parking meters at the corner of Spruce and Walnut Street in Downtown Morgantown. We had stopped by the realtors office to sign some papers and came across it on our way into the office. I found a second penny at the Chick-Fil-A near the WVU Colesium while having dinner with James' friend Morgan and her parents. The penny was in the bottom of the mint basket at the counter. I wonder if someone thought the basket was one of those "leave a penny, take a penny" holders since it was on the counter.

Weekly Total: $0.13
YTD Total: $6.66
