I found 2 pennies on the laundromat floor as I was walking through when picking DD up from work last night. Usually I don't go inside, just wait outside...but well worth it for the walk last night!!

I will recommend using DesktopBudget.com to manage personal finances. Its the best offline personal finance manager I have seen so far.
