I found $2 at walmart today !

Several people walked right by it ! It was in the middle of the main passageway so not like I could go around asking if anyone lost it..

Not sure if this is accurate or not, but, I have heard that if you find money in a store, it actually belongs to the store. Kind of like if someone came into your home and found money on the floor there. But, I don't know for sure.

Personally, I would have turned it in to the service desk, just in case someone came to claim it. I doubt it, but, it's only $2, ya know???

It may have belonged to a little kid. That's what I'd be thinking.

It was my 2.00. I can describe it. They are wrinkly, green and white, smell bad. There is a picture on the back and a president on the front. On the bottom it says one dollar. There is also a little date on the bottom right side. So can I know have my money back? lol

I would have done the same, it is only 2...100 would have been different

I found $55 at Target about two weeks ago. There was scrunched up money in 3 different aisles around the Christmas stuff, toys, and sporting goods. I went up to customer service 3 different times. I have no idea if it was claimed, but no way could I keep it.

My ds found $20 at Khols one day. We left our name and number with the service desk and told them if anyone reported having lost money to give us a call. Nobody called. I wouldn't have bothered for $2 though.

Yeah I was just kidding. If it did belong to a kid he/she learned a valuable life lesson cheaply.

It was a $2 bill? How auspicious that would be! What good luck!

One day I went to walmart with mom. As we walked into the mail doorways, she looked down and nearly stepped on a $20. She quickly snatched it up and the guy behind her exclaimed, "Did you just find that $20?!" like he was mad or disappointed HE didn't find it first, hahaha. My mom said "NO, I dropped it!" and I about died...........hahaha. No one seemed to be looking for it, so we headed back to McDonalds in the back of the store and had us a nice free lunch. But I STILL feel guilty about it!!

Oh, I thought it was one of those $2 bills that your hardly ever see. My grandpa gave me one in 1985 before he died and I've kept it all these years.

I used to work as a cashier several years ago . One elderly gentleman would come in our restaurant every so often, buy a coffee and danish..and pay with a $2 bill. I'd change it out for 2 of my $1 bills and after a while I had quite the collection. I would give them to my son's in their stockings for Christmas and each of their wallets has one in it.

Several years ago, I went to a Mall in Richmond to the kids gap store. I bought up some pjs and jeans, tshirts, etc. One thing I really wanted was a lunch box. They cost $20 though..

I left the store and started to walk to my car..right by the front doors of the mall was a $20 all folded up on the floor

So, did you get the lunch box?
