inspired by the burning money thread...this had me wondering

what is the smallest amount you would go out of your way to pick up the found money

also, post if the number changes if people are watching (i bet it will for a lot of people even if they wont admit it)

i probably just wouldnt pick up money period if there were a ton of people around, assuming it was someone else's that dropped it.

if i were in the middle of nowhere id probably pick up anything in bill form.

i think it would be funny to soak a dollar in urine and leave it on the sidewalk. then experiment with what denomination people would actually keep, knowing it is covered in urine

I pick up pennies cause I think it's good luck if it was minted the year you were born. I don't pick up nickels or dimes. I pick up quarters cause I need those for laundry. And obviously I pick up bills
