That gift card will be buried in the snow until next winter because Camelback made so much snow that they're buried in it. I'm surprised you didn't remember where you dropped your gift card and look for it. It's only $5 you probably make that in 10-15 minutes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was all soggy, but still had a few rides left. Perhaps I'll find your GC on CB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've spotted money from the lift at Blue several times and retrieved it all but one time when some kid got to it at the same time and I let him have the $5.

I've only found a $50 once. I've found $20s several times. My mom once found a wad of $20s and back in the late 40s my grandfather was in New York City and found a $100 bill in the lobby of an office building. He checked the entire building looking to see if anybody had lost the money and he was distraught to keep it. If I saw a $100 bill anywhere on the ground I would step on that mofo if people were around and pretend to tie my shoe before retrieving it.

Can't that be considered entrapment? i took a criminal justice class in college and the professor was the actual head of the NYPD's legal department. their justificaition (as he told us) is that the undercovers place the wallet near a cop, token booth, etc and watch the person who picked up the wallet. if they walk by the token booth or cop without stopping and giving them the wallet, they wait til the person leaves the station. while this is going on, they radio up to the uniformed cops on the street who make the arrest when the person comes up the stairs. their justification is that they give the people an opportunity to turn the wallet into a cop, token booth clerk, etc. if that person leaves the station with the wallet, they assume they are stealing it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
