I'd turn it in too. My wallet somehow slipped out of my pant pocket when I got out of my car to campus right into the street with hundreds of other college kids walking around that could have just kept it. I didn't even notice until I got a call about my wallet being found. I'm grateful and assured me that there are good people out there no matter how small/big the deed is.

about 6 years ago, i found a female's wallet at a gas station. it had cash, credit cards, driver's license, even her phone number on some bills, etc. i took it home and call her up.....guess what she was doing? she was cancelling all her credit and bank accounts. i dropped it off moments later at her house and she offered me $$$$, but i said "no."

if the wallet i found had an ID or some sort information where i could find the owner, i would have definitely gave it back.

Take the money, turn in the wallet with your phone number and a note in it, to Lost & Found.

Drop the wallet back off. But if you are hurting for $35 that bad and your willing to take it from a kids wallet then keep it, you may need it more than he did.

Just remeber karmas a bitch and when you loose your wallet youll loose more than just a measley $35.00...

Did you at least help the poor beat up kid before you drove off with his wallet?

I found an old beat up wallet near where I parked.......

There was no beat up kid......and I took advantage of his situation!

You know, mall security / lost and found might take the wallet you return and keep the money for themselves...
