The smiling and svelte - but somewhat flat - Chrissy Lance, who lives in Rittman, told a local TV station that she was inspired by other beggars - and ensured that she got the required panhandling license from the city.
"I see people panhandling every day, so why not panhandle for boobs," a major newspaper quoted her as telling the TV station.
"It's original. I've never seen anybody do it," she said.
The 37-year-old said that the money she makes as a barmaid helps pay the bills, but it's not enough to pay for implants.
The enhancement, she said, would help improve her "self-esteem."
So far, single mom and college student, Lance has collected lots of catcalls and wolf whistles - but only about 90 dollars.
Lance said she's not deterred and won't leave her corner until she reaches her goal.
"Everyone that knows me, knows that I am a wild one," she added.
