!!!Look what I found!!!

today is my lucky day! I was going to go to the beach again today (went yesterday) but boy am I glad I didn't! And why, you may ask? because I found 5 $20 dollar bills on the ground!!!!!:shock:and also got some great deals at SDM, plus a good find at McDiarmid lumber

my boyfriend just got hired for a construction job, so we biked to mark's work warehouse, and while he was inside, I went next door to SDM and found chocolate and granola bars with manager stickers attached, so the chocolate was only $0.29 and the granola bars were only $0.49! While walking towards mark's, I found $100 near a garbage bin! there was only the bills tucked together and no wallet or any identification that would tell me who may have dropped them, so woohooo for me!:lol: Also, we stopped at the hardware store so my BF could buy an Xacto knife, and I found a cool 7 peice Xacto's for my paper cutting art for $1:excited:AWESOME DAY

Congrats, on the deals but especially the $100.00

Just imagine what you can turn that $100.00 into.

Nice!
I still have fond memories of finding 20 dollars tumbling along in the leaves.
I can only imagine how nice finding 100 must be.
I'm glad it went to a smart canuck. I'm sure it will be well spent.

I feel bad for the person that lost that money. :(
But then again, whenever I have that much in cash I make sure that it is tucked away somewhere so that it can't randomly fall out onto the ground.
WTG!

And this is how I learnt not to fold my bills together like that. Lost $60. I'll never forget it.

Great brag!

I was a server for a long long time...one night I had a table of 3 30 somethings...a guy and two ladies. The guy was a total jerk and so rude...trying to show off I assumed...made me keep coming back over and over...annoying!! anyways they get the bill and of course he doesnt leave a tip. They leave and I take my tray over and start cleaning up the table. (I worked at a Boston Pizza and we were open late..it was about midnight and they were my only table) anyways, I bent down to pick up a napkin off the floor and what do you think I found under the guy's chair? A huge WAD of folded up money. $600.
OMG!!!
about 10 minutes later the guy comes running back in the restaurant over to the table and looks around the floor. I went up and said "lose something?" and held up the money. the jerk snatches it out of my hand, gives me a look like I stole it right out of his pocket, and leaves the restaurant.
I was kind of mad that I gave it back to him after that reaction. That JACK A** should have been kissing my feet!!!
