Spent 2 hrs at an elementary school yesterday. $3.70 in clad (including a 1962 nickel), a toy plane and one of those flattened souvenier pennies you pay .50 for.
Last weekend I did the same elem school for only an hr and got $1.50 - so that makes the grand total for that one school $5.20.

My injury.... I wear these rubber knee pads that are awesome. Apparently I was up and down so much yesterday that the straps rubbed blisters on the backs of my knees - thru my jeans! Hopefully they will be healed by the weekend so I can do it all over again!

hello, from tony-n-nc
I use a gardners knee pad, tie a small rope to it and tie the other end to spring loaded clip and clip to belt,
let hang there until needed. It works for me, no blisters, sweatey knees no booboos ;D
 
Was up! use skin pads the slide on and fit great to ur legs! they're made for aggresive skaters for street skating so they dont look unkewl. These slide under ur jeans and have a great padded area

check it out u wont be dissapointed! Also u can make ur own. Just add a piece of extra part to ur pants on the outside knee area. Insert some soft foam or cushion anything small the thinner and more cushion the better! form there u can sew it up or easily just sew some velcro on the top of the area so u can replace or take out the padding. Think of it like a long pocket on ur knee! Hey worked in Iraq!!!!
 
i also wore need pads until they caused me to have nerve damage to left leg. the strange thing is that I thought that they were too loose;that the knee pads were aways slipping down. Stormtrooper can tell you my experience with those darn knee pads. I now get down and get very dirty! ;D
