Sadly, I've never found any money at a casino. Although I have lost quite a bit over the years.

I have found money in casinos $5 bill on the floor in Harras, Sad to say I later donated much more than that. I should have stuck to my original plan with the money which was to put it in a machine hit the button and take that win or loss I would have walked out the casino with $11 to my benefit.
I have found chips on the floor usually $1 but they are free. Knowing how much I have donated to the casino's the best thing I can do with one is avoid it. Over a life time I might have lost about $1,500. To some that is nothing but it is something when you later need the money. Glad to say I have not needed the money as of yet but rather keep the odds on my side and avoid casinos' like they are poison.
When asked "Have you seen anyone come out on top by gaming in casinos?" Steve Winn said "no not one".

NEVER NEVER EVER play a voucher that you find in a casino! My cousin just had one "lifted out of her purse" in Detroit this week and took a chance to see if somebody turned it in. Nobody had but, since they have barcodes on them they can see if they have been played and cancel them if they have not been played. If they have been played they can pinpoint the machine and then do some camera work to find out how the voucher was obtained.

this will only work if you have a players card.

By the way my cousin was able to get her $140.01 back and a couple other people got their $$ back and some jerk got his butt thrown in jail cause my cousin went to security.

I have never been to a casino..We have a few about an hour and half outside of Pittsburgh, but they is one opening soon about 20 mins away..I will go and try my luck with about $5-10 and then get something to eat and leave...I will keep my eyes on the floor.

Can you get in trouble (kicked out, etc) if you check the coin return trays of slots, etc...You know, like we used to do with pay phones when they would give back change???

I know a lot of people earn a living in casino I had myself taken out banned myself went to the casino to play max $100 spent $300 and said that's enough.
There are people that have told me that doesn't constitute a problem I beg to differ I did not act with self control and it is a problem solved for me this way. Better is a problem before it occurs than afterward, Bible.

In short don't wait till you loose the car Wife relationship with family etc if you see it is an issue deal with it today.
Same with smoking alcohol you name it if you know you are going to have to quit some day then plan a date and stick to it. If you need help ask and it will be given to you.

Metal detecting is my new compulsion sure you get a lot of trash but you do get the chance to get a jackpot.
