It's that time of the year now whereas people are rushing around in the malls shopping and being careless. It happened to me and i let the person know!!!! They were so appreciative towards me.

I would definitely let them know.
I recall 2 examples. I noticed a $10 bill on the ground in the front of the classroom and gave it to the teacher. A day or so later the kid that dropped it said how he was so appreciative.
My friend was getting up after lunch and dropped a dollar, so I found him later and made sure to give it to him, even though it was only a dollar.

Hurray and a star for you! It's happened to me too. I wouldn't even give it a second thought. To me, it would be just as bad as stealing it from them.

I'd give the money back but it just depends on the circumstances of the finder,if they have nothing then they would probably keep it,if i had nothing i would think twice about giving it back.
