    You know they make magnets that you can wheel around to clean driveways and such at industrial places and scrap yards right. I know i used one when i was maybe eight I am pretty sure it had a handle that you just flipped a switch on magnet on magnet off and was four feet wide. I remember my dad got a flat the day after I swept and I got b#tched at about not doing it right.

    Is it beneficial? Sure! When I walk my neighborhood, I never pass a penny and certainly nothing silver! I also can't stop myself from picking up washers... I don't know what it is about washers, but I MUST HAVE THEM ALL!! I also pick up nails, bolts and screws. I find wheel weights and all manner of odds and ends. Besides, every nail and screw I pick up is one less that will end up in my tire or the tire of my neighbor.
