Ok, you throw them away don't you? They are a bother, you don't like them, you think that the government should just do away with them? I am talking about the penny. The one cent coin, that people either count dearly, save for a rainy day, or like a friend of mine, toss them out the car window because they annoyed him.

Ally Bank is hoping that you will stop and look at your penny's and maybe find a lucky one worth $1,000. Ally Bank is encouraging everyone to take the penny more seriously, so the created 100 of what they are calling Ally Lucky Penny'sThe left the pennies out, allegedly in plain site, just waiting for someone like yourself to pick them up.

When you pick up one of these pennies and realized that it is one of the limited Ally pennies, head to the website, AllyLuckyPenny.com and enter some information to complete your task. Each penny will have a unique code on it.

Good Luck finding the Lucky Pennies.
