Have a Penny Pick it Up...All Day Long Have Good Luck?

5 replies • Last post

Hi CL Members,

We have an expression/superstition in the US..."Have a penny, pick it up, all day long have good luck". Anytime you find a penny and pick it up hold on to it and your day will be filled with luck. I have to admit i do that, but you have to say the quote as you pick it up!!

In the online world of casinos, pennies aren't necessarily good luck. In fact they can be down right bad luck. Especially when your taking a deposit bonus. There are some casinos who will void any win because there was still money in your account from a previous promotion. Even as little as one penny can ruin your chances to win.

Then on the flip side you better leave at least a penny in your account for some slot free rolls. I was actually denied to play a free roll because i forgot to leave a penny in my account.

Who ever said that a penny isn't worth anything, better think again!

I know the saying but I have never heard that you had to say it while you were picking it up. Maybe thats why it never worked for me!

The problem is they phased out 1c and 2c coins here in Australia many years ago. So technically speaking there are no pennies to be picked up any more!

Not really, nothing costs that little any more and all that happens is when you add up your grocery bill at the end they round it to the nearest 5 cents. You don't miss them!
