I've lost a couple cameras. Didn't think there would be much left so I never bothered to go back and look for them either.

most kids wouldve just took the money and threw the wallet in the trash...she's apparently being raised right. good for her and really nice of the guy to give her $100 for returning it to him.
on a side note,i found a wallet when i was in 2nd grade,it had about $120 in it..my older brother and i looked in the wallet for a drivers license and didnt find any id what so ever..another kid had seen us looking at it and went and told the principal who came out and just took the wallet out of my hand...later in the day a miracle happened,lol..they found out that it belonged to a guy who was in a car accident earlier that morning in front of the school..for finding it i got $5.00...i still wonder to this day if the guy actually DID in fact get his money and wallet back.

all my wallets has always had a chain every since i was 8 or 9yrs old.

I lost my wallet once out on the interstate off ramp ( checking my load to make sure it was secured) I wrote it off as gone, for good. Then 2 weeks later, it was mailed to me with the entire $280 in it, minus the postage! That doesn't happen too often. I sent the guy who found it a nice little Christmas present.
Now, I have my wallet on a chain ever since then.

Lost my wallet once with over $300 in it. Got it back with money still in it, and no return address on package. Figure I owe karma, so I have returned the favor several times, and will continue to do so whenever the situation occurs.
