Stay at home boredom spring cleaning pays off

[sun starved Gayle]

Cleaning out the bottom drawer of a seldom used nightstand and found a 1999 $50.00 1 oz gold piece that we cannot even remember where we got it from. We suspect my FIL gave it to us. It could be worth over $1800.00. It was in a soft plastic protective cover. I cannot believe we tossed it in a drawer and forgot about it!

Great job @sun starved Gayle on finding coins in the couch! I may be tackling some of those jobs soon but would rather be traveling (sigh)

Lucky you! we just found 5 year old yeast. Oh, and we forgot to bring bread to our condo, and found 5-year-old frozen waffles.

One good thing, after this corona thing ends- and it WILL end, all of us will have cleaned out drawers, pantries, freezers to start over with.

I just heard an eBay "ka-ching" from my phone -- sold a Westin Kierland Villas Owner luggage tag I found in my "excess travel crap" stash when I was cleaning that closet last week. I've listed some Viking and Diamond tags too.

Yesterday, I found some masks in a ziplock, in the garage.
... As good as gold (almost).

I cleaned out a seldom used night stand, and found $500 cash in an envelope!

Getting kind of jealous here. Lol. I am sure that I haven't ever forgotten about money in my life so I know that I won't be finding any.
