I've been watching some vids on Youtube of a fellow detecting in WWII sites in Germany. Fascinating what you can find in a country with that kind of history!
my wife got me one a year ago for christmas, she has her own, so last summer her and i combed the beaches. found about 4 bucks in change, a ton of bottle caps and soda tabs, i found a butter knife in the sand, but we had more fun just spending time together. kids always asking if you found anything. did help a guy find his phone.

This is the guy's Youtube channel. He goes by Klugscheisser (smartass) Dan. Man he is finding a butt load of **** stuff and coins going back to the 16th century.

Problem is that to "Pay at the Pump" you have to put your ZIP code in! We don't have one so it won't work and we still have to go in and pay!
