Lost and Found

Laundromat

Did a couple of loads of laundry today. As I was unloading the
second washer, I was doing some mental math about the costs.
"Let's see, $1.25 a load to wash, the same to dry...that's about...
HEY! What's that in the washer???"

And this picture is exactly what I found in the washer. Three
wet dollar bills, and a handful of change.

Ain't much, but it put a smile on my face, gave me a PaD, and
so, here you go!

Sorry, Gary, it was my duty to turn you into the Feds for money laundrying. Nothing personal.

Fun story and shot, Gary.

LOL at the comments.
I cringe at the thought of finding a CF card at the bottom of the washer.

Well hell...you got enough there to treat yourself to a cheeseburger and small fries. Dump another load and head out to McDonalds for a fine slap pattie buffet.
