Those folks at littlechanges.com who were riding/walking around the country relied on the money they found on the side of the road sometimes.

I found a 5 lb piece of turquoise colored slag glass in someone's trash, on Monday while I was running with my boot camp class. I was so glad no one else saw it, and I snatched it on the way back.

Bungees fall off trucks all the time! I usually only see those on the freeway, though. I've seen/found lots of tools--people who put a tool on the bumper or drive away or something like that.
