I just found twenty smackers on the sidewalk, half frozen in ice. I had to chip at the ice to get it out. Have you guys ever found money in public? My dad lost a $100 bill out of his pocket once.....

are you sure there wasn't a hidden camera nearby that captured you chipping away at the ice- to be shown on TV?

-like a UK show where they superglued a £1 coin to a bollard and videoed people trying to prise it off, in vain.

I find money all the time.

I met a guy at a convenience store I go to every day, the day before Valentine's Day. He was trying to pick out scratch off lottery game cards.

I told him to get the one with hearts on it for his wife and that it was a winner. At first he said no, but I told him he would win if he gave it to his wife on Valentine's Day. So he said, "What the heck", and bought one.

I went back to the convenience store the other day and the guy at the counter gave me a twenty dollar bill. I asked him what it was for as I only gave him a $5 bill. He said that guy won with that card and he wanted to give me something back.

Money. It's all over and always around just waiting to be picked up.

There was another thread that had a word with "k i n g" in it and it too was edited out. Including mine just now (I edited it to show it)

Yeah. Found $20 waiting in line at a dry cleaners once, no one admitted they'd lost it. And another $20 at Disneyland right behind the castle one evening.

When I was kid, was going thru a trash barrel at the local car wash looking for soda bottles to turn into cash. What I found instead was a paper bag with an empty whiskey bottle w/all the giuy's change from the purchase! About $16 if I recall.
