Ok so I wake in a crabby mood as finances are not getting easier. So I tried to go through some suit cases that I have yet in the last three years looked through. I moved in with my boyfriend and due to space constraints I still have tons of clothing in suit cases, storage bins and in storage - I use to runway model so I need a double walk in closet for my clothing and accessories. 
So I saw this really cute shorts jumper that I have not worn in like for ever, so I put it on and reach into the pockets and like Oh My God! There was $20 bucks in there, so I reached in the back pocket and there was $2 bucks more.
Whoot, whoot I was so excited you would have thought I found a million. Has this ever happen to anyone where you find some spare money you did not know you had and surprisingly find it and act like you hit the lotto? I sure did. Whoot, whoot.
I feel blessed and lucky today...

Yes this is so very true, after I found the money I thought for a second when did I put that there.
It was a nice surprise and like Stephine stated I should go through all my clothes to see if there is more and you should check all your books.

Wow, it's really fantastic!I cannot tell exact issues now, but I can understand your feelings well.
Sometimes when I'm disapponting in life, God always comforts me by His own way. - Even if it's so small, I know He is there and experience Him. It's really perfect! 
So that we know God always blesses us!

Hey hardworkinggurl! Congrats on finding the "stash"! How cool
is that! I must admit I am not usually that lucky since none
of my clothes ever have pockets. lol But, there was this one
surprise that I did get a few months back. I was going through
a box where I keep some papers and I found an envelope that I
had totally forgotten about that I had put away when I had
returned from my trip to Florida a year ago to see my Mom. I
can't believe I had forgotten about it because it had $200
cash! Yipee! Well, it's long gone now and I haven't found anymore
hidden money and I am sad to say that I know I won't be finding
anymore anytime soon!

Something similar happened to me a couple years ago. I was visiting my mom and took out a book that used to be one of my favorites. As I was reading it I found a twenty dollar bill that I had put in the book as a bookmark when I was younger. I was so happy and thrilled that I found that twenty. The best one though is about ten years ago I saw something in a puddle in the parking lot where I lived and fished it out. It was a one hundred dollar bill. Needless to say my boyfriend at the time and I had pizza that night and went grocery shopping. There was no way of knowing who that belonged to as cars are in and out of there all the time. I felt like I won the lottery.

Wow the $100 bill was like a true blessing. Fate like this comes right at the right time. The $20.00 bill also since you had it saved since you were a child. God Bless you with many more blessings like this.
Thanks for responding.

my bag have plenty of pockets. so being disorganize person i used to insert pieces of papers, or any small things in the pockets. I also insert coins and bills there. Being so forgetful person, sometimes I don't remember where I put important things even money. So one day, I changed my bag and not use it for many days. I already forgot the stuff that i put in the pocket. When I checked it again, I found the money I kept there long time ago. It's $100 bucks, how cool? And it happened when I thought I don't have enough money. God is really working and solving our problem even if we don't ask Him to help us.

This is exactly what I was trying to say in my post. In God we must always Trust. Even though sometimes we feel that God does not answer our prayers somehow he does we just do not recognize his mysterious ways! 
Wow $100 bucks was like winning the lottery. I see you are a new member so welcome,to myLot

Many times when I go for a different coat that I have not worn in a while, I a lot of times will find money in the pockets. Have even gone thru some of my old purses after I quit using them months later when I want to use one again and have found money there as well. Yrs. ago when I had to hide $$ I wanted to save I had forgotten I had hid some $$ and found it months later and there was almost $100 there so I was quite happy. No, not 1 million but anything found in way of money you thought you did not have is nice.

Hi Tina
Oh gosh yes even a buck or two is certainly a smiley surprise for me. It is funny how we at times find some hidden money and wonder why we did not find it before.
$100 would have made me jump for joy. lol

Congratulations! That is good news. It is always nice to find money in unexpected places especially when you need it most. I have also found money in a suitcase before. When we travel I try not to keep all the money in one place so I put a little bit every where just in case, and I must have forgotten that I had put that $20 in the side pocket of that suit case. It was certainly a nice surprise.

Thank you and it was like I hit the lottery. Too funny, because I can remember the last time I had worn it which was a few years ago and then to find the money, I kept thinking to myself gosh I can't remember putting it there and or forgetting it was there. lol
Your $20 in the suitcase must have been quite a surprise, indeed!

Wow! I'm so happy for you, Marixa I know you're struggling. If I were you, I'd go through all my old clothes too! You never know what you'll find!
Sometimes I'm lucky too and find a few bucks in my pockets that I forgot to take out. It's a wonderful feeling!

You know I was sitting here thinking the same thing...
You never know what I could find, hopefully it won't be tucked away bills instead of money...

This happened to me many times. I'm very careless, usually I forget where I have put cash in. Some times money was washed with clothes. That's really a bad habit, I'm trying my best to overcome it.
The only one advantage of this habit is when you forget to bring money with you, you may have a pleasantly surprise when you find the forgotten cash in the corner of your pockets or bags. Once I didn't have any small changes to take bus home, it was a coin forgotten in the corner of my bag saved me. @cryphakon (7)

I find it feels great yesterday I found a 20 in a old wallet of mine.
The small things make all the difference.
