It was returned to the owner who said she would take care of it. Quoting: Galaxy500 To the owner of the motel that is. Not sure if it was returned to the person who left it behind though.

Can remember when a kid my parents used to take us to a river bar & the kid’s job was to keep an eye on the boats & swim after them if the boats rope came loose from the dock. Got a new Partridge Family record as a reward for one. lol Commie Twitter Refugee GHETTR @GalaxyRose |

Quoting: Galaxy500 When I was about 17 I was walking home from work, I seen this brown bag under a tree, it was just sitting close to the tree, the top was rolled down. So I wondered what could be in the bag, I go over and slowly open it, as I did I seen money, I grabbed the bag and ran home, I knew there was a good amount because the bag was almost full to the top and when I opened it I saw 100s, 50s I get home empty it on my bed and counted, 15,000 dollars This was back in 1988 I kept it Who would I have it to? It was by a tree in an empty field My thought maybe was a drug dealers money Maybe someone robbed someone? I wasn't about to just give it to the police and let them spend it lol Told my dad, gave him a 1000 to pay off his car, he made good money so he didnt meed any money, I just wanted to help him get out from the car payments I went and bought a nice Z28, I bought some clothes, shoes, spent some to party, put around 6000 in bank This was the most I've ever found I've found smaller amounts, 500, 200, 100 50 The only time I found money that I was able to turn in was when I worked at Walmart. Found a purse in a cart, opened it to check Id,there was a good amount of cash in there, Didnt Count it, turned it in to lost and found |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77846190 United States 10/19/2019 09:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I found five dollars in the parking lot of home depot several weeks ago and kept it. Many years ago I found much more than that in the same parking lot and gave it to the store. I followed up on my find and they claimed they never received money turned in by me. I lost my trust in people doing the right thing. |

We tried to flag her down but she didn’t see us apparently. So we took it back to the store where she just finished shopping from and gave the bag to the cashier. Hopefully she got it back. :) Commie Twitter Refugee GHETTR @GalaxyRose |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 75367216 United States 10/19/2019 09:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yes! When I was a young lad I found a wallet with about $700 in it -- this was circa 1959. There was a driver's license with an address. So I made sure it was returned to the owner who had recently been discharged from the U.S. Navy. IIRC, I received a $35 reward which was a lot of money back in the day. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 78092900 United Kingdom 10/19/2019 10:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I found a ladies bag, it had an envelope in it marked with a dude's name, had a huge sum if money that I never counted, call the number inside the purse and turned out the phone was in the bag. So, called the police. Left them my details and advise if lady calls them to give my number. Twenty minutes later she calls, I return it. She goes to give me money as a thanks which I refused and told her to be more careful as not a lot of honest people around these days. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 56026143 United States 10/19/2019 10:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A few months back I found a 20 on the floor at WalMart,,,I was hesitant to turn it in, not because I wanted it but did not think the owner would every recover it. So, I found the store manager who looked shady but I was committed and guilt ed him into making sure HE did nt steal it. He said if no one claims it the money is put into a charity fund they supposedly have... I m sure someone missed that twenty and would at least try and see if someone turned it in, I hope they did or hope the manager did nt pocket it. |
