Finding money in an old jacket

April 8, 2025 4:33pm CST
I haven’t worn my old jacket since the start of last summer. It is a fleece, but is lightweight, and just keeps the chill off me when there is a breeze. I went for a walk today to clear my head during my job hunt. I rummaged through the pockets to see what gems I could find. Perhaps an old pen or mobile phone charge cable. I actually found £860. This is around $1,000. I was amazed. I am not sure when I put this money here, but I sure forgot about it! I suppose as it was always my money I didn’t feel like I had gained it, but in a way I did! I am kinda a couple of weeks of pay better off.

I love to find money in clothing like pants pockets and the like.

Yes especially after such a long period of time. Of course, it needs to be done before washing the garment

That seems like a lot of money to be carrying around in a jacket, but good thing you found it. I would have to say, if I ever that much money anywhere, I'd surely know why I had it. lol
