    Had a few vouchers so I decided to get a new bag after one of the pockets on mine ripped a little. Walked into a well know golf shop on Dublin's northside and had a browse. Near the counter I spotted a nice Mizuno bag reduced from 189 to 129 so I thought that looks grand. Asked the assistant is it reduced cos it's the last one, he said yes it's last years model. So I took it.

    Arrived home delighted with myself. Went through all the pockets removing all the plastic stuffing and wrapping, tags etc. In one of the pockets was a blown up plastic bag there for filling the bag out for display purposes. So I took it out then put my hand back in to check for anymore only to find a wallet!!! Euros in it and a name badge inside the wallet.

    I'm thinking how the hell did that get there? My thinking is someone working in another golf shop or golf course stole it, then pretended they won it as a prize or got it as a gift and tried to exchange it. It's a young persons wallet.

    Anyone have any ideas? What should I do? I contacted the golf shop to see if they had anyone working under the name of that on the name badge. No was the answer, I also asked to speak to the manager but he wasn't there.

    Going to give the money to charity and dump the wallet probably. Anyone any thoughts?

    speak to the manager as whoever told you it's the last one was probably lying.

    Hey give the guy back his wallet. If you can tell who owns it then let him have it back.

    It's not your concern how it got there. And if it is his bag he should have it back too. The shop will refund you, and more if it turns out to be stolen.;)

    how about contacting the gardai re the missing wallett if it was stolen or lost there may be a report on it. i know it seems like a waste of time but if it was your wallet you'd hope someone else would try to find you instead of dumping your wallet

    I agree returning it would be the nice thing to do, not enough decency in the world these days.. I'd also have a chat with the gordee..

    Its a really unusual name, only 11 entries in the phone book so I'll ring around. All that was in the wallet was 29ish euro and a name badge. I'v used the bag already, if I cant find the owner money going to charity and wallet getting dumped, nothing of value in it and it's a cheapo wallet anyway
