That's how I got my backpack with expensive stuff and my wallet with 750 dollar cash.

My business card was in my wallet so a detective called my phone and got the news !! I was very very surprised 😯

I met him at union square station and everything was there. I lost my bag while riding a yellow cab and rushed out too fast while on the phone with my sister getting the news that my friend died from Colon cancer.

I found some girl's keys on the street once, called her ballet school from a tag she had, then called her mom and her mom said she was robbed. Then a NYPD detective called me and asked for more details about where I found the keys so it's not a bad idea to contact them.

Ha! I found a wallet on the train and gave it to a cop. The face he made. It was like I ruined his whole day. Now I wonder if the person ever got it back. I would have been better off throwing it into a mailbox.

Now that mailboxes only have narrow slits, I’m not sure what’s the best way to do it.

Last time I brought a lost wallet into a precinct they told me I should've just left it where I found it because "now the owner won't be able to come back and find it"... how fucking stupid and lazy is that?

Like on the off chance they didn't just drop it without realizing it and know exactly where they left it (which was on a random sidewalk), AND it doesn't get picked up by some other person who just steals it, MAYBE there's a tiny chance they're on their way to pick it up right now and now they won't get it because I picked it up... okay, yeah sure.

Or you could just look them up in your system and call them to come pick it up from their precinct.

The police returned my wallet to me last year. I had dropped it and some lady picked it up.
