...what would you do?

Just asking the forum. I'm intrigued...

Give it to charity, report it, give to a homeless person or spend it?

Unless obvious who’s it is I would keep it and I think most would

If I'd seen someone drop it, I'd give it back.

No one in sight, then finders keepers.

My kids cost me a fortune,always need something new, usually 2 days befure I get paid. I'd consider it karma

There is a 'Theft by Finding' law.

I think a woman got convicted a couple of years back for not handing in to the police £20 she found on the floor.

But I would probably pocket it if I didn't know who had dropped it.

I'm more likely to be the one that dropped a fiver as the one to find a fiver

The great thing about charity....

is that it benefits the giver.

Just as it does the receiver.

If I didn't see who dropped it I'd pick it up and spend it not gonna lie, probably buy two lucky dips on the euros.

I would buy 5 packets of chocolate biscuits from lidl and a box of tea, then I would take the wrappers off and go into work and sell a cup of tea and chocolate bar for 50 cent.

That would be about 30 servings.

That would now give me 15 in 2 to 3 days. I would then double down and buy 10 packets of bars and tea again.

That would bring me up to 35 within a week and a half.

This would be where I would buy 10 packets again, (10) and it would leave me with 15 to diversify into other projects in order to grow my portfolio.

If I knew who dropped it i'd give it back.

Otherwise it's mine.

It's not that huge that i'd treck to a police station to hand it in or put in much effort to find the owner.

If I didn't see who dropped it then it is totally going in my electric meter, how am I supposed to be clean and fresh for my lovers if I've got no sodding power?

I will deliver it right to your desk anywhere in the building or surrounding buildings, I'll even throw in a smile, and some friendly banter.

Unfortunately, I have first hand experience of this.

Me and a group of mates were out and we found a handbag on the floor... It was soaked through and had nothing in at all to identify the owner, so I slinged it in a skip as we walked to the next pub. Up pops PC plod who tells me it's against the law... I ended up in an argument about it and was arrested soon after.

Wonderful having a police caution on your record for "Kindred Theft" when you need security clearance to do your job

But what are you supposed to do with it, all the police stations have closed their front desks.
