    And a very large dead spider in the corner of the room. How can I combine the two for maximum profit?

    Eat 'em.

    Or..

    Pretend the spider is an octopus and pimp it out to tentacle fetishists.
    Use the penny as ballast.

    Or I could find more pennies and spin them on the legs like really small plates?

    Is the spider squished and is the penny old??

    I assume if said spider was large enough you could sell it to your local Chinese restaurant, and with the pennies you recieve you could start a spider farm. Raise them to be as large as cats, and have them put in spring rolls

    Take the dead spider with you to a restaurant and put him in your soup. Then complain loudly and demand that the meal be on the house. Maybe you could get them to upgrade the meal as you can't bear to eat soup now. The penny is just pretty much useless.

    No, no, It's not an American penny, I'm pretty sure this one's worth something.

    Oh you are right. I was thinking American penny- just force of habit. Well then I'd say invest that penny- along with any others you might find.
    Perhaps in oil.
    But I would still like to see the penny spinning on the spider leg trick. What did you plan to do with the body?

    I was thinking maybe rent it out as punctuation to someone with terrible grammar, loads of folks like that on the webnets in need of a full stop.

    Tape the spider to a balloon and send it to africa where it will be used as a source of food.

    the legs could be glued on to eyelids for false eye lashes. Can you find more dead spiders with long legs ?

    Its considered bad luck to kill a spider.

    But its good luck to find a penny.

    So nothin changes in the Sarky household this week.
