There was money hidden everywhere, in newspapers, books, vases, drawers, in folded socks, you name it.

    Believe me I searched my conscience for a long time to determine if I was within my rights.

    This was about three years ago.



    I kept a bundle of 100 singles from that job for the longest time...
    that is pretty impressive.........I thought I was doing good to find a few hundred in different clean-outs thru the years
