So close, yet SOOOOOOOOO far away...

I would turn the card in too. I couldn't imagen if that happened to me and someone stole all my money. I'd feel HORRIBLE. I would never do that to someone else!!

Once I found a guy's checkbook outside the apartment where I lived in Bethlehem. I took it back to him since he was close by (otherwise I would have mailed it). It was a college kid, and he was thankful that I returned it.

Another time I found someone's credit card, and I turned it in to the bank that had issued it. They actually gave me a traveler's check or whatever it was that was for $10.00 since I turned it in. They didn't have to give me any money for doing it, but it was a nice gesture for the bank to do so.

I remember when I was about 16 ('bout 20 yrs ago) and had been shopping at the mall for Christmas and bought my dad a sweater. I was carrying the bag, but it turned upside down and the sweater fell out. I was so upset, and I went with the receipt back to the store about an hour or so later, and here someone had actually turned it back in. They said they held on to it because they had just remembered selling it and wondered what happened. I was so grateful that the person who found it turned it in instead of keeping it.
