If you found $3 on the floor, would you keep it or take it to the service desk??? This is assuming you find it in a public place. At what dollar value do you keep it or turn it in???
A $3 bill..???
How queer.

I'd keep a $20...or the total of up to $20 in any combination of bills. However!!... If it was over $20, I'd turn it in.loco said:

I guess I'd consider how likely it was that someone would really even go to the service desk looking for it. I wouldn't expect someone to even turn in three bucks, thus, I wouldn't go looking for it except to maybe walk by where I thought I dropped it.
I can't draw a line in the sand though, at what point I'd turn it in. Depends on where it's found, how many people are around, what kind of store, etc. If I found a crumpled $20 in the back section of a Wal-Mart, I'd keep it. If I found a $20 in the checkout line of a grocery store, I'd ask if someone dropped something.

Dude I knew in college literally found a bag of money in a parking lot with thousands of dollars in it. Seems an armoured car driver dropped a bag of cash when loading up an ATM. He returned the money. The bag did have the banks name on it. At that point in time I don't think I would have returned it. Probably would have today, not really out of the kindness of my heart but out of paranoia.

I don't know if it was kindness, paranoia, or compassion, but I turned in $3. It was right before closing, and I am sure the owner never saw it. The lady looked confused, but I thought, how could I really benefit from $3. It's not like it was a find. It's not like it would help, but it might the person that lost it. I doubt it, but who knows.Westy said:
If it were $10,000 in an unmarked bank bag, I would likely keep it. People should be more careful than that, but I am sure paranoia would lead me to the police.
I would keep any dollar amount that I found in a public place. if someone is dumb enough to drop it I'm smart enough to keep it

uhm - nevermind...I answered my own question.MancilG said:
Back in when I was in Jr. High my parents took me to a national event BMX race that was being held in an arena/civic center in Shreveport, LA. to see if BMX was for me. I went to the bathroom and found a wallet with about $300 in it. I went ahead and turned it in. Kinda had the feeling that the owner of the wallet never saw his money again though.
$3.00 more than likely, I'd keep it.

I'd keep anything under $20. Anything over, I'd go to the service desk and leave a note with my phone number. If someone called and identified the sum within a week, I'd gladly return it. If not, my student loans would get a little bit smaller.
There is a giant worldwide pool of lost money..... sometimes you make a deposit and sometimes a withdrawl.
I would cash it out for 12 quarters and buy a tube of super glue. Id take the quarters to the nearest elementary school and superglue them to the paint of a crosswalk in the middle of an intersection.

There is no amount of money I would return if it was just money and I was confident nobody saw me pick it up, basically because there's no guarantee that the person you turn it in to is going to do the "right" thing.
However if I found someone's wallet with a bunch of money and identification, I would give that person back their money with the wallet.

fyck that,, im keeping anything i find...
If there is a high likelyhood of it being claimed I would turn it in. If not I would keep it no matter the amount.
I would keep it
In high school I worked in a grocery store. I worked in the courtesy booth. One of my jobs was to verify the cash that we got from the bank. Yes we had to count everything including the $1.Westy said:
1 dollar bundles come in straps of 100 and Id have to count THOUSANDS.
1 time i started in and counted 1,2 bang there was a 100 dollar bill, then another then another all the way to the end and there were 2 singles capping the end. So instead of 100 -1's there was 4-1's and 96 Benjamins ($9,600.)
I turned it in and didnt get some much as a thank you. The story ended up being that the wrap was really old and had been floating around for a while. The original person from the Fed that created it was fined, fired and dead.
I could have kept it and not a single person would have been out anything.
So you can take the 3 bucks and go get a Jumbo Jack hold the onions, that's one buck right there. Then you gotta buck and change left so you get to leavin then you realize you're thirsty so you go back in and get a water. They don't charge you for that SCORE! Then you leave and go to the store. Hmmm decisions decisions, they gotta pack of cards for 4 bucks bummer too much... Hmm gardening gloves... alas they are 4 bucks too! Oh wait a minute a three pack of pine scented car fresheners. Perfect! Woo hoo, walk out into the sun with a broad smile knowing you are well fed and your car will smell good. Then the guy who's 3 bucks walks up from behind you and kicks you in the nuts. Was it worth it?
