Ever lost something more than a $10 bill and never got it back?
-_- I've dropped my $20 bill running around like a maniac in the
store during closing hours. _ I'm such an idiot - I didn't know
we were going to the store after the gathering... -__- Should of
told me to bring a purse, at least I'd be able to pay for the
damn thing with security!!! -_- Now, I'm $20 broke... And my mom
is kind of disappointed in me but she told me to treat it as if
that money never really belonged to me and that it's a donation
to whomever. x_x She gave me the $20 bill anyways, and I just
dropped it......... GAAAH!

Yes I do remember loosing one time a $100 bill. I remember putting it in my jeans pocket to avoid carrying a purse. Something I never do is leave without a purse and somehow I decided that they not too and well it too was donated to the unknown.
You are lucky you mom replaced the $20, how sweet of her to do so.

She didnt replace it.. it was the one she just gave me today and I lost it in the store. D: That sucks that you lost a $100 bill. 
Yeah, I guess the moral of the story is... Bring a purse, a backpack, a nice wallet that you know if it's in your pocket and you can hear it drop, or a fanny pack... Even if the fashion police comes to get you... Least you've got something to hold your essentials in. 
That's unfortunate for you.

I never did lose any money personally. Trust me, when I have money on me, it is pretty much duct taped to my backside to the point where it is never coming off. I don't lose money, more likely I find money that others carelessly dropped some time ago. Sadly, nothing more than a $10 bill which does prove that there are people around here that are not that careless.
I do have a slightly amusing story through. It was not amusing to my mother who it happened to, but it was worth a laugh afterwards. She thought that she threw away two hundred dollars away on accident. So she tore apart the garbage trying to find it. It was not there. As it turned out, it was underneath the dash board in the car and she had forgotten about it. Which was glad that it was there and not on the ground somewhere, because I think it was a windy day and who knows where it might have ended up.

Luckily I've never lost anything, at least that I know of...
Really sad for you, care to not lose anything in the future.
Hope you are still having a good day.

I am sorry to hear :( I have lost money before but then I found money before so it's even... maybe it's a sign for something that you'll get back eventually :)

hi lifeguru,
Fortunately i never lose money. But i remember i lost my purse in a small restaurant of my school,that's 500 yuan inside, i called my friend and she went back to looked for it,the shopkeeper returned it. He said that a man found it and gave it to him. I don't know who he is, and just say thanks again here to him again. Hope you have a good mood, happy lotting.
