[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would take it in to the store.

More than once I've left my wallet in a grocery cart while transferring bags to the car and each time (2 or 3 times in 10 years) it's been turned into the customer service desk.  Probably by the grocery store workers, but maybe by other customers.[/quote]

Last week, I found a purse in a shopping cart and I turned it into he customer service desk.  I waited a bit, thinking the owner might return, but there was no way I would leave it, as some suggest.  There are too many people like pp around.  [/quote]

Absolutely.  If the license in the wallet says the rightful owner lives within about an hour or so, I would totally return it to them.  I have had my purse stolen before and it is a huge PITA to get a new license, credit cards, etc. Karma is real.

I once returned thousands of dollars in bonds by finding the owner in the phone book (this was about 25 years ago).  The owner was so grateful - and shocked.  I was a broke grad student at the time, but really, that was not the point.  The owner was so happy, he gave me a reward that was 20% of the amount on the bonds.  Really nice older gentlemen.  I kept thinking it was probably his grandkids' tuition I found, potentially.  I found it outside a Metro stop.  He didn't know where the bonds had gone - scary!

Do good things.  It comes back to you.  Always.

Life is not a a-hole contest.  Some people will never realize this, sadly.
