I found a five dollar bill in the wash. But I can't tell if it came out of Larry's pants or one of the kids. Or it could have come out of mine. How sad is it that I can get morally conflicted over a soggy 5 dollars?
I know deep down I would stab my best friend in the back for the price of an extra value meal, so I try my best to live my life better than that. Then I get stabbed in the back myself for a thrill and giggles, and I think to myself, “To hell with it.” Take the money Sarah, and buy yourself a footlong. You’ve earned it.
Keep it Sarah. It probably came from Larry’s pocket. So its yours.
Sadly, I usually only find pennies and dimes. The occasional nickel. Now the new polymer bills are washable. But don’t put them in the dryer or try to iron them flat. I hear they melt.
Beviek beat me to it—that’s exactly what our family did!
Except for the one time there were three twenties floating on top of the water when I opened the washing machine, and knowing one kid had just done a big babysitting job I happened to casually mention that whoever had started a load might want to check…barely got the first words out of my mouth when you never saw a kid run so fast.

Five bucks isn’t much pay for doing the laundry.

Finders keepers, etc. If you’re so careless with your money you deserve to lose it.

How nice to find $5. I only find dimes and quarters at most.

Yesterday I looked in my wallet for $80 I had gotten on Wednesday but didn’t find it. Till I got home and looked in Wednesday’s shirt pocket.
