    Pick up the trash!

    Well after posting my weeks worth of clad last night I got up from My computer and had something snag in the crack between the back and the seat of my computer chair.

    "Dangit stupid ziplock of trash from the park"

    "forgot I picked this up, wtf is it? Looks like a magnet"....nope..."sticker?" *looks at the back seeing if there is peel away paper*...nope.

    I then take a piece of folded paper from the baggie.

    Called the number after work today and I won 100 bucks. I am counting this as a detector find because had I not bought it I never would have been at the park picking "trash" from under bushes.

    hmm, do I still get the cash?


    O and I found out I have to goto the town festival/carnival and be announced as the winner and draw names for the door prizes....being somewhat antisocial thats something I am not looking forward to.

    Re: Pick up the trash!

    Eh, it's a hundred bucks you found md'ing if you go. If not, they'll find someone else.....

    You could auction the thing online and maybe make a hundred more from it....

    Craig's list, e-bay, some kind of scheme gots to be cookin'!

    Think like the schemer, act like the schemer, be the schemer!

    Or is it skeemer?

    Eh', good find and make the most of it! You get the hundred bucks and get to scope out the fest for good detecting afterward!

    I found a pin in a local park good for 300 bucks from a local radio promotion but it was a few years old when I found it.

    Bad memories, Bob J/K!!

    Nice find!!! (but only if you follow through)

    Go to the fair, put on a little show & pick some names. Try to have fun with it! If it takes you an hour, you've just been paid $100 an hour!
    God bless our veterans! Thank you for your sacrifices!

    Oh, it's money. I thought they were gonna give you a herd of deer when you said a hundred bucks. But the money's also good! Can't buy many deer for that much, though.
