Lol, my grandpa used to pay me and my sister a penny for every pinecone we picked up in his yard....he made out like a bandit. We would be outside, leaving it quiet inside, we basically cleaned the whole yard (which was huge btw) of pinecones, and I'm pretty sure the vast majority of those pennies ended up in his cushions by the time we headed home.

I'd have been shaking the tree for more pinecones! lol A money tree! lol

I always knew there would be a crap ton behind the shed, but my bag wouldn't fit there so I would set it down and get as many as I could from behind there, but my sister would sneak over and steal them out of my bag.
