With the change of seasons what have others found in your coat pockets after getting them out? 

So far my vest had $.65 change, plus  pennies. My parka liner/medium coat contained a winter hat and gloves.  I may slip a $20 into my rain jacket before I put it away.

I found beef jerky.  At least I hope that was beef jerky....

I left $100 in my shorts last fall and found it in the spring.  That was unexpectedly awesome.

I’m wound too tight.  

I’ll never find a $20 bill in a jacket pocket - all my money is in my wallet in ascending order faced the same way.  

When I got bored on work conference calls I would sort it by year and serial number.  Older bills ahead of the newer bills - all still in ascending currencies.

Sounds like you're wound just the right amount of tight to me. Money has all those numbers so that it can be properly organized.

Wait, do you mean to imply that some people put money in their wallets not in order?

You mean people have wallets to put their money in? I thought that was what pockets were for.

I don't even keep it in a wallet.  Just a clip in my pocket.

It was 90 today. No jackets have been needed yet. 

Thursday's high is supposed to be 72. That will be a nice change.

Don't forget to 'clean' your bills - straighten all of the corners,  flatten out wrinkles, etc.

My grandmother always used to do this and I've never understood the point. If you know you put it there, doesn't that take the novelty away?

I found a wad of old tissues.

Just a lighter. It's depressing. Usually I find weapons in my pockets.
