Jackpot

Today was a good day. I worked at the cinema this morning, again working on floor instead of candy but that's ok because I could then look for money. The search started off slow. I found only 10 cents in the first cinema. By the way, have I mentioned how it is oh so much fun crawling on my hands and knees inbetween rows of seats with melted ice cream, soft chocolate and squishy gummies to be careful of? Well it is. The next couple cinemas were better. I got up to $11.40 by the time I reached my last cinema, the largest one of all. I had been saving it for last. I started at the bottom and worked my way to the back . I hadn't found anything and was starting to lose hope. As I bent down in the back and last row to find even 10 cents, I saw a piece of paper. I figured it was some flyer or maybe a check someone had lost but as soon as the light hit it, the wonderful print of a $20 note came into view. I couldn't believe it! $20! My total was now $31.40. But it didn't end there. After another session of films had ended, I went inside to clean theater 2 with no intention of searching for money, but there it was, in plain daylight, another $2 coin. I also found another 20 cents in another cinema. My grand total for the day was $33.60. Not bad if I do say so myself.
