    Yep. It was me. If you send me the money, I'll confirm exactly how much it was.

    Seriously though. If it was a significant amount of money, did you let the store know? Bad juju if you don't. :)

    Every time I've gone into IKEA, I've come out with less money.

    Yep I did.

    If no one claims it they give it to charity which seems fair enough to me.

    I think thats the point of going shopping...:p




    If someone guesses the right amount, will you give it to them??
    My guess: €74.78


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,097 ✭✭✭✭zuroph


    23.83?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    I lost 500 euro, it was to pay for my puppy's new bionic legs...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,165 ✭✭✭Savage Tyrant


    I was in Harvey Norman's a few months back. Strolling around having a look at sofa's (Should have gone to DFS, they were having a sale ya know)
    I sat down on one and found an envelope with well over a grand in it. ****in' conscience got the better of me so I went looking for a manager to give it to. On the way I overheard a man reefing his wife out of it for dropping in and her frantically checking the sofa she'd sat on....The relief on her face when I handed it to her.
    Heaven here I come.....


    Anyway.....I lost over a grand in Ikea.....It's mine.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,097 ✭✭✭✭zuroph


    €1?

    He must have heated it up with a blowtorch and hit it several times with a lump-hammer to do that.

    I thought the general rule was that when you hand in cash like that, that they keep it for so long in case owne turns up. IF they dont turn up, they give it back to finder.

    If I was the OP, I would send friend in for the cash after a number of days.

    1) Boardsie finds money in IKEA.
    2) Boardsie tells other Boardsies about the money.
    3) ???
    4) Profit.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34,809 ✭✭✭✭smash
