    Hi if anyone hears or knows of anyone who lost a penny's shopping bag in Drumcondra today please get in touch as I know the person who found it, there is over 1000 in cash in an envelope so I am sure someone will be looking for it. The person who found it has a good heart and wants to return it to the owner.

    Please note there are items that will need to be told that are in the bag before it is returned so please don't start replying saying it is yours if it is not! :)

    Nice one OP. Plenty of people out there who would've taken it for themselves.
    Hope the person gets in touch with you. You'll have made their Christmas.

    Your friend and yourself are a credit, honesty like this i would imagine is a rarity, good things will come your way. Hope you find the owner, good luck.

    It's good to hear in these times of scurrilous behaviour and double standards by some of our so-called "leaders" and "betters" that decent honest people are still to be found doing decent honest things. Well done OP and pal, your post and this thread gave the aul' heart a lift.

    dont hand the money into the police,they will use it for buying coffee and stuff if it isnt claimed after a certain number of time

    they have your details which is good enough,u hold onto the money and if it is not claimed after 90 days or some amount of time then it is legally yours and you should go spend it

    Fair play to you and your friend OP. Although a penneys with a grand in cash in it sounds a bit dodgy.

    Fairplay to you guys for trying to find the owner. But who leaves a grand in a pennys bag?! Gotta keep that sorta cash close to the body. Anyway hopefully you find the owner if not enjoy the spending spree.
