Yes at first i was thinking not worth the germs but on nightline the other night they were saying the price of a penny before i think 1980 are actually worth 2.4 pennies because the price of copper is going up yes still not a lot profit if only a few pennies but if you have a lot it will add up...

Absolutely!  As a matter of fact I did it just yesterday I mean it may not be much but its free money and pennies do add up.  Last week I even found a $20 bill in a parking lot now I know everyone would stop and pick that up.

I would stop to pick up a penny sure. as long as i wouldn't get hurt doing it, you never know, but i'm sure it usually is safe to pick it up.

I would pick them up. Although there have been times when I left a coin on the ground because foot traffic or it rolled under something and would have been difficult to get.

most definitely i just picked up a couple while walking yesterday. a penny is equal to 1 cent, cents can add up to dollars, doesnt that make sense? get it cents/sense. lol :binkybaby:

Yup I always do. I believe in good luck heads-up pennies too lol, but it doesnt stop me from picking up tails-up ones. They really add up; I have nearly a piggy bank full of pennies i found on the ground now!
