Considering it was probably someones Christmas money that they were going to buy presents with, you did the right thing.

Right. As opposed to money that was going to pay for bills or buy groceries.

Honestly, I probably would've just kept the cash. Not because of anything selfish, but because I wouldn't have thought of a way I could find the owner or have the owner find me. If I had found a wallet with $1k in it, I'd definitely contact the owner and give them the money and wallet, without a doubt. But yeah, I wouldn't have thought to give the teller a number to call to name the amount probably because if I lost a bunch of cash I would never think to call the place I lost it at. I'd just assume it gone forever.

Are you really saying you would have simply shoved the money in your pocket when you say, "I wouldn't have thought of a way I could find the owner or have the owner find me?"

Pretty much yeah. If I didn't see who dropped it, how am I going to seek out the owner or have the owner seek out me?

I don't know. Maybe leave your name and number with an employee? No one has brought this up yet, though, so I can see how you would overlook it.

But you'd be both a criminal AND a scumbag!

FWIW, I agree with you completely.

Quick, edit before someone makes a sarcastic remark about missing the sarcasm dripping from that post. Seriously, the "give the teller your number, not the money" solution has been posted more than 10 times. You're not THAT original.

Dip.
