    Hey everyone,
    Remember when I would do
    FIM - Found In Meter (Return tray)
    FIC - Found In Coinstar (Return bin)

    So I did a walk at lunchtime just to get away from a stressful morning at work and to get some steps in.

    The first parking meter I checked had $1.50 in quarters

    The second parking meter about 2 blocks away had $3.00 in quarters

    Then I went to a cashier on 23rd Street and got these coins in the Coinstar reject tray

    And then my last cashier on 30th Street had these in the Coinstar reject tray

    Nice haul, Edwin! How much is a hot dog at a stand these days in NYC?

    You should quit your job and just do a daily circuit to hit all of the meters and coin machines - make good money and get a workout at the same time!
