Been there done that tho not sure I'd do it again.Pretty sure I won’t :)
I found a wallet containing about $500NZD once in a public toilet stall. Hmmm was it that much? I can't remember....Did you? Was the money still there?? :ahhh
Anyway, there were no cards or anything else except for a receipt for something in an LA airport with a name on it. I guess it was a tourist's NZ cash wallet. I had passed someone who looked like an American a minute earlier too.
I really needed the money at the time but I handed it in to the police anyway. They said if they couldn't find the owner in the next x months it was mine.
Several months later they called and said I could pick it up.

I can't remember....If it was back in winter 2003/2004 it is mine... came in through LA because I was in San Francisco at a conference beforehand. Used my travel money to buy a "round-the-world" ticket, instead of a Zurich-SF/SF-Zurich... Anyway, it was closer to 600NZD.

Yes, all the money was there. I got rid of the wallet pretty quickly - it didn't feel like 'mine'.I found a wallet containing about $500NZD once in a public toilet stall. Hmmm was it that much? I can't remember....Did you? Was the money still there?? :ahhh

There was a wallet on the floor in the gym last week. It had at least $50 in it. I looked for a name on a card and it belonged to the first person I asked.
I asked if it was their wallet. They said yes. Then I asked their name. Their name matched that of a card inside. Then I handed it over.There was a wallet on the floor in the gym last week.
