Our local grocery store opens at 6am. I was out of coffee and pulled in right as they were opening the doors. The parking lot was empty.
As I began to walk across the parking lot, I looked down at what I thought was a piece of trash.....it was a folded $100 bill.

I found a wallet stuffed with cash once in a grocery cart in Memphis. Brought it to the address on the ID. It was to a Jewish old folks home on Poplar Ave.

About $450 rolled up one night in a shopping center parking lot that had several bars operating at the time. This was back in the early 1980's. Haven't found so much as a dollar since then.
ETA: I did find a wallet a year or two ago with hundreds of dollars in it, but was able to track down the owner and returned it to him.

Back in the 80's, I worked as a bar back and a bartender. I knew to always look under the bar at closing.
Well, one Mardi Gras, I was at the bar that is on the left as you walk into Pat O's. it was wall to wall people. I look down and find $600+ dollars.
I have found $100 bills more times than I can count.

About 12 years ago at McDonalds in Matthews. My wife went into the bathroom to change my daughter and found a purse. She bought it back to the table to see if she could find out who it was for. She found the ladies business card ID and called her. She told my wife she was leaving to go on vacation and had $4500 in her purse. Offered my wife a reward but she refused it.

About 9k.

I was working at a grocery store and went out to get baskets, and someone left a money bag in the buggy. I brought it to the manager and shortly after a lady came to the store in a panic.She worked at a convenience store and closed out for the day....she was paranoid bout leaving the bag in her car while she shopped.

FOund a wallet at the bottom of the ocean (about 10 ft down that is ) and it had 1,500 cash in it. Asked the hotel if that guest was staying at our hotel and sure enough he was. Met him in the lobby and he gave me 500 wet dollars from it. Would’ve preferred his wife in retrospect but alas, he gave me 5 hundy

$300 on the ground near video poker machines. Found a coin in one of the slots at the Belle one time. Dropped it in and won $500.

The most money I ever found was $17M. And that wasn't in cash, that was in an offshore bank account belonging to a person who was stealing from the US Army.

The most cash I ever found was a little over $3M when we busted an on base drug house. A little over $3M in cash and that much again worth the drugs. Plus 3 pitbulls (not the rapper)

$40

But I’ve probably found over $200 in random $20s on the ground over the past 10 years
