PROMPT May 25th

Write about the most exciting, odd, or valuable thing you’ve found on the ground or abandoned on the side of the road. Invent a story about where the object came from and who owned it before you found it.

Well, the most exciting, odd and valuable item I found on the ground was a bag of money.
I went to a shopping strip and as I was just entering the post office I spotted a plastic bag on the ground. I picked it up, saw that it contained money and I asked in the post office if anyone had dropped it.. The Mail lady told me that she wouldn’t hang onto it as I suggested. She directed me to the police station. So I handed it in a total of nearly $600 and the policeman said if no one collected or claimed it in three months that it was mine! So I went back after three months fo see if anyone claimed it. No one had, so it was mine!

Another occasion was when VCR’s were phasing out. A news agency was getting rid of his stock of videos. My husband bought them all for $50. We had them hanging around the house for over a year and I suggested we chucked them out as I was sick of seeing them. As I was throwing them away we decided to check inside the boxes. In one of them was $800. Someone had obviously decided that was a good hiding place and then forgotten where he’d put his cash.
