"Maybe some shiny things (sparkly beads, pearls, etc) that might do for "coins"." (@autumnsfolly)
"For the seelie, you would stick to nicer things- maiden's tears, unicorn hair, essence of moonbeam, etc. For the unseelie feel free to be a bit darker in nature- baby's blood, rat tails, gnomes teeth, etc." (@shadows_wolf06)
"You could always leave it in a park if you have one nearby and a few days later add to the 'bomb by hanging up:
"Lost Purse, if found call Thistledown the *insert name of fae race here*
Last Had at: *insert area where you put the purse so someone will actually find it*
Reward: 10 draughts of moonbeam oil and the blessing of the wee folk"
or something of that sort..." (@shadows_wolf06)

| fortunes |
pincushion (@kitonic, discussion)
- "Each pin has a little bit of paper wrapped around it, with a fortune written upon it. Admittedly, a few of them are just silly."
- "Along the edges of my self-named "fortune cushion", there are to be found red tinged fortunes of a more serious note. All in ryhme, and all strongly hinting at the idea of an exchange. Humour is free, because anything can be amusing, however if one wishes for something more, trade is, of course, only fair."
