What you find in pockets

Just emptied my daughter’s pockets to wash ski gear. Curious where this came from

Well it came from Kenya at some point ! Maybe one of her friends gave it to her? I've never seen a Kenyan shilling before, so cool!

It’s the same size as a quarter- so I think it was just given as change- but I’m curious how it got from Kenya to I think Winter Park ️ before ending up in her pocket.

Apparently we give her way too much lunch money too - because it was very lucrative emptying her pockets today.

Thankfully you didn’t find a very old clementine. I hate when that happens!!

I usually find those in my ski bag and/or car. Jacket pockets are more likely to have actual rocks

Was folding up a vest I wore last week and heard a crinkling. Yup $20. Don't remember who gave it to me. I don't think if was a sale at work....maybe....

I love finding money in my ski stuff. Usually the first time I wear it in a season, even though I’m just SURE I empty the pockets before putting it all away.

Well it was "clean" money!!

The last time I went skiing was at Beaver Creek and cookies were being passed out in the morning upon arrival. I wasn't hungry so I stuffed it in my coat pocket. I don't remember taking it out. I fully expect to find a pile of crumbs in my pocket when I go out tomorrow. Will report back

The Kenyan shilling is pretty cool! It probably was change of some sort; it would be neat to know its journey to the US!

I'd like to ask everyone to please check your pockets to see if my prescription Oakley sunglasses are in there.

My husband left his sunglasses on the roof sat at a softball tournament and they were dusty but unharmed next to our spot when we arrived Sun. I hope you find yours.

Oh no.... I now wear a cord with my Maui Jim prescription (progressive) sunglasses.....
Back in the 80's I lost a pair of Vuarnet prescription sunglasses returning from a Snowbird trip....

I must've ate the cookie on the slope and forgot about it. Still found a pile of crumbs in my pocket...

I maintain that any money found in pockets can be taken as a laundry fee.

I went through an old jacket recently and found one of the old paper lift passes for the Remarkables dating from my honeymoon some 15 years ago. I obviously don't wear that jacket much.

A whole new spin on money laundering

I too lost a pair on Vuarnets back in the 80's sadly I knew exactly where they went ..... down the long drop toilet at Mt Hutt

Sometimes I don't take things out of the pockets of warm clothes before putting them away before the cold weather sets in. It is always interesting what I will find in my pockets For example, I always find money (once I even found Kyrgyz soms), hair bands and other trifles.
