I have found money in the street a few times. The occasional note drifting in the wind is not worth me taking to the police station.
I found a wage packet on a Friday with a piddling small wage in it. Though it was out of my way, I took it to the Police station. Turned out to be owned by a relative related to a neighbour, and they praised my honesty for years afterwards.
My favourite story is finding a wallet in the road stuffed with cash. I opened it and found a bank card from my bank in my name What The Funicular? I thought it was a set up prank.

I always correct mis-changes
i dont think that is finding keeping
and yes the clerk gets screwed at cash-out
Restaurants - it is a simple " i want to come here again!"
O god no one reads my posts. I am watched reader ! 1987 - a complete stranger came up to me at a supermarket and said: "You put up a drip on my friends sixk baby when no one else could".

Funny what people remember - I went for a job at a paint factory, being interviewed by the head chemist & the HR bloke. The HR bloke sez - "You once saved me from 3 bullies". I didn't remember him but I remembered the incident - on a visit back to see my primary school headmaster. I was about 13 & the HR bloke about 6 or 7 at the time.
I didn't get the job BTW!

// You had found your own wallet - or am i missing something there ? //
I found a wallet in my own name that wasn’t mine. I have a fairly common first and second name, but had never uncounted anyone in the real world with my name.
I was waiting for a lift, and noticed a wallet in the road being run over by traffic. I retrieved it and found cards in my name. Exact spelling, same bank etc. but it wasn’t me.
After about 10 minutes, a taxi turned up and the driver got out, inspecting the road. It was his wallet. I gave him his wallet bulging with notes, and he just said thanks and drove away.
