Thoughts from the Change Race: The Pre-Tip Results
http://changerace.blogspot.com/2008/08/pre-tip-results.html
Sunday, August 31, 2008. Before I get to my finds, I need to give you an update on the Pre-Tip idea from my last post. I only have a sample of five trips, but I would say that on average my service has gone DOWN when I pre-tip. One time, the guy even lost my ticket, so he didn't know where my car was! He did however still have the dollar! Interested to hear your thoughts, or any of your pre-tip experiments. Onto the finds. Since my last post I have found:. 3 pennies at Schnuck's. Thanks for the info....

Sunday, September 07, 2008. Since my last post I have found:. 1 dime at Walgreens. 2 dimes at STL TSA. 1 penny at Schnuck's. This post is written with a heavy heart as it looks like we might be saying good-bye to Brian from Change Quest. As you might know, when Chris and I first talked about this idea, he had just found the Change Quest blog, and it was after reading and getting hooked on Brian's blog that we decided to blog our race. Total since last post - $0.31. Total for the Race - $281.22.

Tuesday, September 23, 2008. Since my last post I found 1 dime and 2 pennies. One of the pennies was a 1951 Wheat Penny, which I found while jogging around the apartment complex. Nothing much more to report on. Sorry. Total since last post - $0.12. Total for the Race - $281.34. Low cost life insurance. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). What started as a race to find $100 in change, against my friend Chris, turned into a new perspective on life. Keep your head down and always look for silver!

Tuesday, August 19, 2008. First off, thanks to all the comments on the last post. In case you didn't hear, the NPR story that I teased a few weeks back, finally aired last week. I will post the whole story here in a few days. But I am just been super busy with work, and haven't had time to reply back to the comments, but believe me, I have not gone big time! I had to travel to Milwaukee last week, and at their TSA I found an amazing 1 dime and 7 pennies! So the last 4-5 times I get picked up at the airpo...
