i found $900 in the ground it was in a blank bank envelope, i had no idea how to trace it back to someone, posted on CL, a week or so later donated some and went shopping0

Thats so nice of you!!0

I found $90 in the street outside some bars. I figured someone lost it when they pulled out their keys/wallet to go home. I gave $20 to a homeless man, and I spent the rest, because I'm evil like that. Finders, keepers.0

The most i've found was $60 in the cash return machine at the walmart do it yourself registers.0
-
I found a bunch of really dirty singles once.0

The most I ever found was $20 on the ground in a parking lot at a mall during Christmas time. My kids hardly ever get fast food as I can't afford it usually. This was awesome as I was running late and had a class at the gym so I picked up some Subway for the kids on the way home.0

I'm always teasing my husband that he wants me to go with him on a drive because he doesn't want to have to get out to open gates. We got to this gate in the middle of the desert, middle of nowhere. I got out to open it and found two hundred dollar bills on the ground next to it. They had been there for a while, probably weeks. They had been run over and smashed in to the dirt a few times. That's reason enough for me to open gates from now on! :drinker:0

I found two 20$ bills at the car wash last week. The wind was blowing and I was the only one there, so I stuck it in my pocket and went and put gas in my truck.0

$80 bucks in back seat of a rental car I was driving..0

$40.00 in an ATM. I took it and felt guilty so donated it to a charity my girlfriend works at. Still waiting for my good karma on that one.0

My car got in an accident, and one of the men who was fixing it dropped a 100 dollar bill in it. I called the repair shop, but no one claimed the money, so I got to keep it!0

The most I have found is $20.....0

I have found some whilst out on walks before, I donate it to whatever charity I am raising for at the time.0

I find a quarter or a nickel and pennies underneath my couch cushion. Or when you go to do laundry and find a $5 bill in your pocket. I'm not very good at finding other people's money, unfortunately. :ohwell:0

$40 at a drive thru ATM0

We stopped at an empty rest area in the middle of the night and DH was headed to the bathroom while I sat in the car, he came right back and threw something in my lap and said count it. It was a huge roll of 20's. $1000.
We decided there was one very pissed off drug dealer somewhere.
We also found 60,00 pounds in an ally in Wales once.0 -
WOW that is a LOT of $$$
My 7 yr old found a $5 bill in the grocery store and was happy as a clam. I found a $20 on the way to the bus as a kid.
But the best story - once a complete stranger gave my family a $100 bill and told us to do something special together! It was the most amazing thing!0 -
I found $40 once on the floor of Meijer's. I turned it over to customer service. I wouldn't feel right using money someone lost.
The better half found $200 at an ATM. He turned it over to the bank. When he went to turn it in, the elderly man who left it was there asking for someone to look at the tape to see who took his money after he took his bank card and accidentally left the money. The better half got a Starbucks gift card from the man that he purchased earlier that day.0 -
I found $50 in a walmart parking lot once. My mom tried to guilt me into turning it in by saying "what if some old person needed to pick up their perscription and thats all the money they had???" We walked through the pharmacy before I went straight for the cosmetics0

the most i "found" was $20. I say found like that because i bought a wallet at a yard sale and it had $20 in it. By the time I realized it i was already home and not able to make it back to the yard sale as it was out of town. That was as a 10 year old kid lol0

I haven't found money but once or twice a year if we are in a restaurant for dinner we will buy the dinner for a family nearby if they have a really nice way with their kids or if the kids have been really well behaved. We just ask the waitress to add it to out bill and instead of their bill they get the following note....
''This is a gift from some fellow parents who just want to say that we think you are doing a great job with your children.
Strangers did this for us once and we have never forgotten it.
Pass it on''
Perhaps one day Karma will catch up and I will find a winning lotto ticket on the bus!!0 -
I found 60.00 at a Spartan Race in the parking area. Picked it up, put it in my pocket with 20.00 of my own money. Ended up losing all 80.00 going down the giant water slide.0

I found $20 on the floor in the middle of a check out lane at Wal-Mart, several people walked right over it I picked it up and put it where it would be safe (my wallet).
Even better than that, yesterday I walked to a park near my house to do a lap and I found a $1 bill on the ground. I know $1 is not more valuable than the $20, but it seemed like I was being doubly rewarded for choosing to get a bit of exercise and that made it seem more valuable to me.

I found the nastiest $5 bill once. It was on the side of the road in winter, all gross and black with the salt from the roads. I took it home, washed it off and hung it up to dry. Then I gave it to my kid to buy a toy.0

When I was little, like 6 or 7, I found $100 at the ice skating rink, turned it in to the safety guy looking over everything to have him try and find the owner, when I walked away I turned around and seen the guy laugh with his friend and pocket the money. I've found $20 a few times in parking lots at the mall or restaurants.
When I worked at the bank, I found $200 right outside the door, my co-worker and I held on to it for the day, at the very end of the day, this little old woman came into the bank in a panic, didn't speak to us, she was just looking around frantically. Finally we asked her if she was okay, she said you can't help me, I lost some money this morning, it's probably gone. We smiled at her and said, this is probably your lucky day, how much did you lose, she said $200, we turned it over to her. I've never seen someone so grateful before. Made my day!0 -
While out walking today I found a Lotto ticket for tonight's draw. Wish me luck!! :drinker: :bigsmile:0

I used to work at a casino, and I found things all the time. Sometimes I would find money, sometimes cigarettes or lighters. One time I found a bag of weed on the floor of the bathroom. :smokin:0
